Molecular epidemiology, genetic variability and evolution of HTLV-1 with special emphasis on African genotypes.

Retrovirology - 16 Dec 2019

Afonso Philippe V, Cassar Olivier, Gessain Antoine

Abstract excerpt

Human T cell leukemia virus (HTLV-1) is an oncoretrovirus that infects at least 10 million people worldwide. HTLV-1 exhibits a remarkable genetic stability, however, viral strains have been classified in several genotypes and subgroups, which often mirror the geographic origin of the viral strain. The Cosmopolitan genotype HTLV-1a, can be subdivided into geographically related subgroups, e.g. Transcontinental...
