BACKGROUND: Human leukocyte allele (HLA) class I polymorphism has the greatest impact of human genetic variation on viral load set point. A substantial part of this effect is due to the action of HLA-B and HLA-C alleles. With few exceptions the role of HLA-A molecules in immune control of HIV is unclear. METHODS: We here study HLA-A*68:02, one of the most highly prevalent HLA-A alleles in C-clade infected sub-Saharan African populations, and one that plays a prominent role in the HIV-specifi...
