Abstract
⺠We examined CTL immunodominance after SIV challenge in vaccinated macaques. ⺠Vaccine antigen-specific CTL responses were induced dominantly post-challenge. ⺠SIV non-vaccine antigen-specific CTL induction post-challenge was delayed. ⺠These imply an influence of vaccination on immunodominance post-viral exposure. ⺠This study provides insights into CTL antigen design in AIDS vaccine development.
