Phylogenetic analysis of full-length pol gene from Korean hemophiliacs and plasma donors infected with Korean subclade B of HIV type 1.

Abstract excerpt

There was an outbreak of HIV-1 transmission among 20 out of 122 Korean hemophiliacs from 1990. We assessed the genetic relationships among HIV-1 viruses found in three cash-paid plasma donors whose preseroconversion plasma was used to produce Korean-made clotting factor, 20 hemophiliacs infected with HIV-1 in Korea, three hemophiliacs infected with HIV-1 from clotting factor manufactured outside Korea, and 71...
