Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of an Old Complex Circulating Recombinant Form, CRF27_cpx, Originating from the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and Circulating in France
Nicole Vidal,Pierre Frange,Marie-Laure Chaix,Claire Mulanga,François Lepira,Samuel Edidi Bazepeo,Cécile Goujard,Laurence Meyer,Christine Rouzioux,Eric Delaporte,Martine Peeters +10 more
TL;DR: Since the three viruses are clearly epidemiologically unlinked and share the same complex recombinant structure, they represent a circulating recombinant form, designated as CRF27-cpx, indicating that HIV-1 strains evolved over a long time.
Journal ArticleDOI
Presence of CRF09_cpx and complex CRF02_AG/CRF09_cpx recombinant HIV type 1 strains in Côte d'Ivoire, West Africa.
Thomas A. Toni,Christiane Adjé-Touré,Nicole Vidal,Albert Minga,Charlotte Huët,Marie-Yolande Borger,Patricia Recordon-Pinson,Bernard Masquelier,Monica Nolan,John N. Nkengasong,Hervé Fleury,Eric Delaporte,Martine Peeters +12 more
TL;DR: To determine in more detail the precise structure of these viruses, the full-length genomes for six HIV-1 strains were sequenced and it was revealed that part of the pol gene belonged to subtype K, the first time that such recombinants are described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Performance of the ViroSeq HIV-1 genotyping system v2.0 on HIV-1 strains circulating in Senegal.
Moussa Thiam,Halimatou Diop-Ndiaye,Khady Kebe,Nicole Vidal,Rokhaya Diakhate-Lô,Abou Abdallah Malick Diouara,Nafissatou Leye,Ousseynou Ndiaye,Amina Sow,Ndeye Fatou Ngom-Gueye,Souleymane Mboup,Coumba Toure-Kane +11 more
TL;DR: The findings suggest the need for an alternative method or alternative primers for non-B strains that were not sequenced successfully using the ViroSeq HIV-1 Genotyping System v2.0.
Journal ArticleDOI
Divergent HIV-1 strains (CRF92_C2U and CRF93_cpx) co-circulating in the Democratic Republic of the Congo: Phylogenetic insights on the early evolutionary history of subtype C.
C J Villabona Arenas,Nicole Vidal,S Ahuka Mundeke,Jérémie Muwonga,Laetitia Serrano,Jean Jacques Muyembe,François Boillot,Eric Delaporte,Martine Peeters +8 more
TL;DR: The analysis showed considerable differences between the newly discovered early-divergent strains and the conventional subtype C and therefore suggested that this virus has been diverging in humans for several decades before the HIV/M diversity boom in the 1950s.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic and phylogenetic characterization of structural genes from non-B HIV-1 subtypes in Italy.
Maria Tagliamonte,Nicole Vidal,Marialina Tornesello,Martine Peeters,Franco M. Buonaguro,Luigi Buonaguro +5 more
TL;DR: The results confirm the constant HIV-1 molecular evolution and indicate the relevance of a continuous molecular monitoring of HIV- 1 isolates for the development of appropriate vaccine candidates.
