Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To identify variations in the env gene of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) subtype CRF01-AE strains circulating in China and to elucidate the potential relationship between genetic variation and evolutionary pressure. METHODS: Fragments of the HIV-1 env gene were amplified by nested-polymerase chain reaction (n-PCR) from the whole blood of HIV-1 infected individuals from four provinces in...
