Evidence

Furthermore, a single amino acid substitution, N195D, in HTLV-1 SU (Ach.195) resulted in a shift to a CD8+ T cell immortalization tropism preference. Longitudinal phenotyping analyses of the in vitro transformation process revealed that CD4+ T cells emerged as the predominant population by week 5 in wtHTLV-1 cultures, while CD8+ T cells emerged as the predominant population by weeks 4 and 7 in wtHTLV-2 and Ach.195 cultures, respectively.
