Genetic variability of HIV-1 isolates from Minas Gerais, Brazil

Variabilidade genética de isolados de HIV-1 em Minas Gerais, Brasil

Authorship SCIMAGO INSTITUTIONS RANKINGS

We report results of nucleotide sequencing and phylogenetic analysis of the env gene of 11 HIV-1 isolates, in Belo Horizonte, Brazil. Ten isolates belonged to HIV-1 subtype B and one was a probable B/F mosaic. This putative B/F recombinant is similar but not identical in its nucleotide sequence to other B/F mosaics described in Brazil.
