Abstract excerpt
We have determined the nucleotide sequence of the HIV-1 vif gene in viruses obtained from symptomatic patients of distinct risk groups in Madrid. The genetic diversity among the isolates was estimated in 4.6% (+/- 1.4 standard deviation), a similar value to that obtained for the gag gene 3.9% (+/- 0.8 standard deviation) and env 4.1% (+/- 1 standard deviation) (Rojas et al., Virus Res 31, 331-342, 1994).
