Different Regions of HIV-1 Subtype C<i>env</i>Are Associated with Placental Localization and<i>In Utero</i>Mother-to-Child Transmission
5 May 2011
Abstract excerpt
HIV infections are initiated by a limited number of variants that diverge into a diverse quasispecies swarm. During in utero mother-to-child transmission (IU MTCT), transmitted viral variants must pass through multiple unique environments, and our previously published data suggest a nonstochastic model of transmission. As an alternative to a stochastic model of viral transmission, we hypothesize that viral...
