Abstract excerpt
APOBEC3G and APOBEC3F restrict human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) replication in vitro through the induction of G-->A hypermutation; however, the relevance of this host antiviral strategy to clinical HIV-1 is currently not known. Here, we describe a population level analysis of HIV-1 hypermutation in [corrected] clade B proviral DNA sequences (n = 127). G-->A hypermutation conforming to expected APOBEC3G...
