Ultra-deep sequencing reveals hidden HIV-1 minority lineages and shifts of viral population between the main cellular reservoirs of the infection after therapy interruption.

Abstract excerpt

Viral quasispecies population dynamics between monocytes and T-lymphocytes were analyzed in patients after highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) interruption, during a follow-up of 3-6 months. V3 env region underwent ultra-deep pyrosequencing. Co-receptor usage prediction was performed by Position Specific Score Matrix Analysis. Phylogenetic trees were constructed to evaluate the relationships between the...
