Abstract excerpt
Findings are reported from a study conducted to fully sequence the gp120 gene from a Brazilian HIV-1 isolate containing the GWGR motif and compare it to the Brazilian B and F sequences already described. Genomic DNA isolated from six patients in an ongoing HIV cohort study was screened for the pr...
