HCV Peptide (35-44) is a peptide derived from the HCV core protein, specifically spanning positions 35 to 44, serving as an HLA-A2-restricted cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) epitope. This peptide is known to inhibit natural killer (NK) cell activity through two distinct mechanisms: direct interaction with KIR2DL2/3 and a synergistic effect via the CD94:NKG2A receptor. Its characterization is essential for research into HCV immunology and the development of therapeutic strategies targeting viral evasion of the immune response.
