TL;DR: For the first time a recombination event in vivo between viruses belonging to two different groups, leading to a replicative virus is described, which will have important implications for diagnosis of HIV-1 infections by serological and molecular tests, as well as for antiviral treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Near-full-length genome sequencing of divergent African HIV type 1 subtype F viruses leads to the identification of a new HIV type 1 subtype designated K.
Karine Triques,Anke Bourgeois,Nicole Vidal,Eitel Mpoudi-Ngole,Claire Mulanga-Kabeya,Nzila Nzilambi,Ndongo Torimiro,Eric Saman,Eric Delaporte,Martine Peeters +9 more
TL;DR: The equidistance of subtype K to the other subtypes of HIV-1 suggests that this subtype existed as long as the others, the lower distance between B and D, and between F1 and F2 suggest a more recent subdivision for these latter strains.
