Abstract excerpt

The genomic sequence of human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) is highly conserved, although minor sequence variations enable classification of the isolates into several subgroups. We previously reported, however, that the Tax-coding sequence of HTLV-1 genome is highly variable in a random fashion within individuals with HAM/TSP and asymptomatic carriers. Here, we describe frequent base substitutions in the...
