Spreading of HIV-1 Subtype G and <i>env</i> B/ <i>gag</i> G Recombinant Strains among Injecting Drug Users in Lisbon, Portugal

1 Jun 2003

Abstract excerpt

We have evaluated the genetic diversity of HIV-1 strains infecting injecting drug users (IDUs) in Lisbon, Portugal. Heteroduplex mobility assay and/or phylogenetic analysis revealed that env (C2V3C3 or gp41) subtype B is present in 63.7% of the 135 viral samples studied, followed by subtypes G (23.7%), A (6.7%), F (5.2%), and D (0.7%). Similar analysis of gag (p24/p7) performed on 91 of the specimens demonstrated...
