Details
The HCV nucleoprotein fragment 88-96 is the minimal and optimal epitope to be recognized by cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) and to stimulate HLA B44-restricted CTLs that recognize not only the peptide used for stimulation, but also endogenously synthesized and processed related HCV nucleoproteins. It may be a basis for a vaccine to induce a sufficient anti-HCV CTL response in vivo to prevent HCV persistence in individuals with HLA B44 and to eliminate HCV from infected patients with HLA B44.
