Abstract:
:HLA-A*3303 is one of the common HLA alleles in East and Southeast Asia. Identification of HLA-A*3303-restricted HIV-1 cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) epitopes is therefore required to investigate the immunopathogenesis of AIDS and vaccine development in these areas, where AIDS is rapidly expanding. We attempted to identify HLA-A*3303-restricted CTL epitopes derived from relatively conserved proteins Pol, Gag, and Nef of HIV-1 clade B, using reverse immunogenetics. Ninety-nine 8-mer to 11-mer peptides corresponding to the HLA-A*3303-binding peptide motif were selected from the HIV-1 SF2 sequence. Fifty-two of these 99 peptides bound to HLA-A*3303. Six of these binding peptides induced peptide-specific CTLs in PBMCs from at least one of two HIV-1-seropositive individuals. CTL clones specific for three Pol peptides and one Gag peptide killed HLA-A*3303-restricted target cells infected with HIV-1 recombinant vaccinia, indicating that these peptides were naturally processed HLA-A*3303-restricted CTL epitopes. SF2-Pol 594-602 (FYVDGAANR) and SF2-Gag 144-152 (MVHQAISPR) induced specific CTLs in 5 and 4 of 10 chronically HIV-1-infected individuals, respectively, whereas SF2-Pol 60-70 (TLWQRPLVTIR) and SF2-Pol 934-943 (KIQNFRVYYR) induced specific CTLs in 2 and 1 of 10 chronically HIV-1-infected individuals, respectively. Thus, the former are immunodominant epitopes whereas the latter are not. These epitopes are useful for studies of AIDS immunopathogenesis and vaccine development.
