Systematic determination of TCR-antigen and peptide-MHC binding kinetics among field variants of a Theileria parva polymorphic CTL epitope
CTLs are known to contribute to immunity toward Theileria parva, the causative agent of East Coast fever. The Tp967-75 CTL epitope from the Muguga strain of T. parva is polymorphic in other parasite strains. Identifying the amino acids important for MHC class I binding, as well as TCR recognition of...
