Abstract excerpt
The characteristics of HIV-1 envelope glycoproteins (Env) that initiate infection remain incompletely understood. In the primary HIV infection (PHI) stage, Envs using CCR5 as entry coreceptor (R5-tropic Envs) are much more frequent than those using CXCR4, alone or in addition to CCR5 (X4 or R5X4 Envs). However, a comprehensive analysis of the genetic identity and functional properties of CXCR4-using Envs during...
