The dynamic change in HIV subtype distribution presents future challenges for diagnosis,
treatment and vaccine design and development. An increase in recombinant viruses …

Human migration is a major process that shaped the origin and dissemination of HIV. Within
HIV-1, subtype B (HIV-1B) is the most disseminated variant and it is assumed to be the …

A clear and consistent genetic classification of human immunodeficiency virus-type 1 (HIV-1)
strains continues to be of great utility in epidemiological tracking of the AIDS pandemic and …

We have analyzed the unique epitope for the broadly neutralizing human monoclonal
antibody (MAb) 2G12 on the gp120 surface glycoprotein of human immunodeficiency virus …

The purpose of this study was to document the genetic diversity of human immunodeficiency
virus type 1 (HIV-1) in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC; formerly Zaire). A total of …

Previously, we reported that human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) recombines
approximately two to three times per genome per replication cycle, an extremely high rate of …

Genetic variation of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1) represents a major obstacle for
AIDS vaccine development. To decrease the genetic distances between candidate …

Objective To describe the genetic diversity of HIV-1 in South America by full genome
sequencing and analysis. Methods Purified peripheral blood mononuclear cell DNA from …

Most human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) drug susceptibility studies have involved subtype
B strains. Little information on the impact of viral diversity on natural susceptibility to …

One of the major characteristics of the human immunodeficiency viruses (HIVs) is their
extremely high genetic variability. This extensive heterogeneity is the result of the high error …
