HIV peptidome-wide association study reveals patient-specific epitope repertoires associated with HIV control

Jacques Fellay, Paul Jack Mc Laren, Nimisha Chaturvedi

Genetic variation in the peptide-binding groove of the highly polymorphic HLA class I molecules has repeatedly been associated with HIV-1 control and progression to AIDS, accounting for up to 12% of the variation in HIV-1 set point viral load (spVL). This ...

HIV Transmission Chains Exhibit Greater HLA-B Homogeneity Than Randomly Expected

Jacques Fellay, Christian Axel Wandall Thorball

Background: HIV's capacity to escape immune recognition by human leukocyte antigen (HLA) is a core component of HIV pathogenesis. A better understanding of the distribution of HLA class I in HIV-infected patients would improve our knowledge of pathogenesis ...

Differential immunodominance hierarchy of CD8+ T cell responses in HLA-B27:05 and B27:02-mediated control of HIV-1 infection

Jacques Fellay

The well-characterised association between HLA-B27:05 and protection against HIV disease progression has been linked to immunodominant HLA-B27:05-restricted CD8+ T-cell responses towards the conserved Gag 263-272 ('KK10') and Pol 901-909 'KY9' epitopes. ...

Dissecting HIV Virulence: Heritability of Setpoint Viral Load, CD4+ T Cell Decline and Per-Parasite Pathogenicity

Jacques Fellay

Pathogen strains may differ in virulence because they attain different loads in their hosts, or because they induce different disease-causing mechanisms independent of their load. In evolutionary ecology, the latter is referred to as" per-parasite pathogen ...

Elevated HLA-A expression impairs HIV control through inhibition of NKG2A-expressing cells

Jacques Fellay

The highly polymorphic human leukocyte antigen (HLA) locus encodes cell surface proteins that are critical for immunity. HLA-A expression levels vary in an allele-dependent manner, diversifying allele-specific effects beyond peptide-binding preference. Ana ...

HLA-B*14:02-Restricted Env-Specific CD8+ T-Cell Activity Has Highly Potent Antiviral Efficacy Associated with Immune Control of HIV Infection

Jacques Fellay

Immune control of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV) infection is typically associated with effective Gag-specific CD8+ T-cell responses. We here focus on HLA-B14, which protects against HIV disease progression, but the immunodominant HLA-B14-rest ...

No Evidence for Association of beta-Defensin Genomic Copy Number with HIV Susceptibility, HIV Load during Clinical Latency, or Progression to AIDS

Jacques Fellay, Paul Jack Mc Laren

Common single-nucleotide variation in the host accounts for 25% of the variability in the plasma levels of HIV during the clinical latency stage (viral load set point). However, the role of rare variants and copy number variants remains relatively unexplor ...

Site-Specific Polymer Attachment to HR2 Peptide Fusion Inhibitors against HIV-1 Decreases Binding Association Rates and Dissociation Rates Rather Than Binding Affinity

Harm-Anton Klok, Frederik Roman Wurm, Maarten Danial

A popular strategy for overcoming the limited plasma half-life of peptide heptad repeat 2 (HR2) fusion inhibitors against HIV-1 is conjugation with biocompatible polymers such as poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG). However, despite improved resistance to proteoly ...

Role of APOBEC3F Gene Variation in HIV-1 Disease Progression and Pneumocystis Pneumonia

Jacques Fellay, Christian Axel Wandall Thorball, Istvan Bartha

Human APOBEC3 cytidine deaminases are intrinsic resistance factors to HIV-1. However, HIV-1 encodes a viral infectivity factor (Vif) that degrades APOBEC3 proteins. In vitro APO-BEC3F (A3F) anti-HIV-1 activity is weaker than A3G but is partially resistant ...

Evaluating the Impact of Functional Genetic Variation on HIV-1 Control

Jacques Fellay, Paul Jack Mc Laren, Istvan Bartha

Previous genetic association studies of human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) progression have focused on common human genetic variation ascertained through genome-wide genotyping. ...

Contribution of Genetic Background and Clinical Risk Factors to Low-Trauma Fractures in Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)-Positive Persons: The Swiss HIV Cohort Study

Jacques Fellay, Istvan Bartha, Thomas Junier

Background. The impact of human genetic background on low-trauma fracture (LTF) risk has not been evaluated in the context of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and clinical LTF risk factors. Methods. In the general population, 6 common single-nucleotide p ...

Viral genetic variation accounts for a third of variability in HIV-1 set-point viral load in Europe

Jacques Fellay

HIV-1 set-point viral load-the approximately stable value of viraemia in the first years of chronic infection-is a strong predictor of clinical outcome and is highly variable across infected individuals. To better understand HIV-1 pathogenesis and the evol ...
