Abstract excerpt
The presence of HIV-1 DNA sequence variants of pediatric AIDS patients was investigated in a two-stage polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using nested primers for the first and second (V1-V2) hypervariable regions of the proviral envelope (gp 120) gene (env1). Gel electrophoresis analysis yielded amplified DNA bands which exhibited length variations which were characteristic for each child. The PCR products were...
