Variation of HIV-1 mutation spectra among cell types.

Abstract excerpt

The high rates of mutation, recombination, and replication drive HIV-1 diversity. In this study, we investigated how cell type affects viral mutation rate and mutation spectra. In studying four different cell types, no differences in mutation rate were observed, but intriguingly cell type differences impacted HIV-1 mutation spectra. This is the first description of significant differences in HIV-1 mutation...
