medicine | construction of chimeric viruses using patient-derived gag-protease sequences amplified from plasma HIV RNA and inserted into an NL4-3 backbone. The chimeric viruses generated from elite controllers display lower replication capacity than viruses from chronic progressors. Human leukocyte antigen system allele HLA-B*57 is associated with lower replication capacity than other alleles in both elite controllers and chronic progressor groups. Chimeric viruses from allele B*57 elite controllers demonstrate lower replication capacity than viruses from allele B*57 chronic progressors. Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte selection pressure on gag-protease alters virus replication capacity, and HIV-specific cytotoxic T-lymphocytes inducing escape mutations with fitness costs in this region may be important for strict viremia control in elite controllers of HIV | Human immunodeficiency virus 1 |
