Molecular and phylogenetic analysis of HIV type 1 vpr sequences of South African strains.

AIDS research and human retroviruses - 1 Mar 2009

Romani Bizhan, Glashoff Richard, Engelbrecht Susan

Abstract excerpt

HIV-1 subtype C is the prevalent subtype in South Africa, with non-C subtypes being sporadically detected. The accessory genes of subtype C have not been well studied in South Africa. In this study the HIV-1 vpr region of 58 strains was amplified, sequenced, and subtyped. Phylogenetic analysis characterized 54 strains as HIV-1 subtype C and 4 strains as HIV-1 subtype B. The amino acid sequence of the protein was...
