ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to peptides representing CTL epitopes from the HTLV-I envelope protein. The invention further relates to compositions, comprising the peptides, for priming a T-cell response in a subject. Furthermore, methods for priming a T-cell response by administration of the compositions to a subject and methods for evaluating the T-cell function of a patient are described.
