Abstract excerpt

Human immunodeficiency virus 1 type vpr, vpu and V3 sequences from 15 homosexual men and 19 intravenous drug users in the Amsterdam Cohort studies were analysed. Previously, we reported that V3 domains of viruses from drug users are distinguishable from those of homosexual men on the basis of two...
