Abstract excerpt
In Korea, subtype B is the predominant variant of HIV-1, but full genome sequencing and analysis of its viral variants are lacking. We performed near full-length genome (NFLG) sequencing and phylogenetic and recombination analyses of fifty plasma samples from HIV-positive men who have sex with men (MSM) from a Korea HIV/AIDS cohort study. Viral genomes were amplified and the near-full-length sequences were...
