Antigen Load and Viral Sequence Diversification Determine the Functional Profile of HIV-1–Specific CD8+ T Cells (2008)

Hendrik Streeck, Zabrina L. Brumme, Michael Anastario, Kristin W. Cohen, Jonathan S. Jolin, Angela Meier, ...

BackgroundVirus-specific CD8+ T lymphocytes play a key role in the initial reduction of peak viremia during acute viral infections, but display signs of increasing dysfunction and exhaustion under...

Evidence of Differential HLA Class I-Mediated Viral Evolution in Functional and Accessory/Regulatory Genes of HIV-1 (2007)

Zabrina L. Brumme, Chanson J. Brumme, David Heckerman, Bette T. Korber, Marcus Daniels, Jonathan Carlson, ...

Despite the formidable mutational capacity and sequence diversity of HIV-1, evidence suggests that viral evolution in response to specific selective pressures follows generally predictable mutational...

Brumme, Zabrina L, Brumme, Chanson J, Heckerman, David, Korber, Bette T, Daniels, Marcus, Carlson, Jonathan, ...

Despite the formidable mutational capacity and sequence diversity of HIV-1, evidence suggests that viral evolution in response to specific selective pressures follows generally predictable mutational...

Phylogenetic Dependency Networks: Inferring Patterns of CTL Escape and Codon Covariation in HIV-1 Gag

Carlson, Jonathan M., Brumme, Zabrina L., Rousseau, Christine M., Brumme, Chanson J., Matthews, Philippa, Kadie, Carl, ...

HIV avoids elimination by cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTLs) through the evolution of escape mutations. Although there is mounting evidence that these escape pathways are broadly consistent among...

Genetic Characterization of Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 in Elite Controllers: Lack of Gross Genetic Defects or Common Amino Acid Changes▿

Miura, Toshiyuki, Brockman, Mark A., Brumme, Chanson J., Brumme, Zabrina L., Carlson, Jonathan M., Pereyra, Florencia, ...

Despite reports of viral genetic defects in persons who control human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) in the absence of antiviral therapy, the extent to which such defects contribute to the...

Marked Epitope- and Allele-Specific Differences in Rates of Mutation in Human Immunodeficiency Type 1 (HIV-1) Gag, Pol, and Nef Cytotoxic T-Lymphocyte Epitopes in Acute/Early HIV-1 Infection ▿

Brumme, Zabrina L., Brumme, Chanson J., Carlson, Jonathan, Streeck, Hendrik, John, Mina, Eichbaum, Quentin, ...

During acute human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection, early host cellular immune responses drive viral evolution. The rates and extent of these mutations, however, remain incompletely...

Antigen Load and Viral Sequence Diversification Determine the Functional Profile of HIV-1–Specific CD8+ T Cells

Streeck, Hendrik, Brumme, Zabrina L, Anastario, Michael, Cohen, Kristin W, Jolin, Jonathan S, Meier, Angela, ...

Marcus Altfeld and colleagues suggest that the exhaustion of virus-specific CD8+ T cells during chronic HIV infection likely results from the persistence of antigen.

HLA-Associated Viral Mutations Are Common in Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 Elite Controllers▿

Miura, Toshiyuki, Brumme, Chanson J., Brockman, Mark A., Brumme, Zabrina L., Pereyra, Florencia, Block, Brian L., ...

Elite controllers (EC) of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) maintain viremia below the limit of detection without antiretroviral treatment. Virus-specific cytotoxic CD8+ T lymphocytes are...

Transmission and Long-Term Stability of Compensated CD8 Escape Mutations▿

Schneidewind, Arne, Brumme, Zabrina L., Brumme, Chanson J., Power, Karen A., Reyor, Laura L., O'Sullivan, Kristin, ...

Human immunodeficiency virus effectively evades CD8+ T-cell responses through the development of CD8 escape mutations. Recent reports documenting reversion of transmitted mutations and the impact of...
