Abstract excerpt
Viral isolation and V3 sequencing were performed for 52 patients with non-subtype B viruses. The HIV-1 isolation rate was 93%, and 98% of isolates were characterized as NSI. V3 sequences corresponding to NSI isolates were compared to non-subtype B sequences with corresponding SI isolates from the Los Alamos database. The two sequence groups significantly differed in number of sequences with 35 amino acids, net...
