Abstract excerpt
Polymorphisms occurring at the p6gag protein of HIV-1 have been previously found to have an impact on viral fitness and antiretroviral (ARV) resistance, mainly on subtype B genomes. We compared p6gag variability in a large group of 165 subtype F gag-pol sequences, with 36 subtype B sequences from the same study source, and identified sites of gag-pol coevolution under ARV selection pressure. Subtype-specific...
