A near-full-length HIV-1 genome from 1966 recovered from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue

2019-07-01

Abstract excerpt

Although estimated to have emerged in humans in Central Africa in the early 1900s, HIV-1, the main causative agent of AIDS, was only discovered in 1983. With very little direct biological data of HIV-1 from before the 1980s, far-reaching evolutionary and epidemiological inferences regarding the long pre-discovery phase of this pandemic are based on extrapolations by phylodynamic models of HIV-1 genomic sequences g...
