Force for ancient and recent life: viral and stem-loop RNA consortia promote life. [PDF]
, 2014 Lytic viruses were thought to kill the most numerous host (i.e., kill the winner). But persisting viruses/defectives can also protect against viruses, especially in a ubiquitous virosphere. In 1991, Yarmolinsky et al.

Protective efficacy of serially up-ranked subdominant CD8+ T cell epitopes against virus challenges.
PLoS Pathogens, 2011 Immunodominance in T cell responses to complex antigens like viruses is still incompletely understood. Some data indicate that the dominant responses to viruses are not necessarily the most protective, while other data imply that dominant responses are ...
