This paper shows that preferential usage of certain advantageous T cell receptors (TCRs) with the ability to contain potential T cell-selected 'escape mutations' is the main factor distinguishing HIV-1-infected donors with viral control from those with the same restricting 'protective' human leukocyte antigen (HLA) alleles who fail...
