Rapid detection of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 subtype e infection by PCR.
The CRF01_AE (subtype E) strain of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1), originally reported in Thailand, spread rapidly to and showed prevalence in several countries in Southeast Asia, including Taiwan. This strain was also found in other regions of the world. Based on sequence analysis of the vpu gene, a nested PCR assay including an outer primer pair and a subtype E-specific inner pri...
متن کاملDiversification of subtype E human immunodeficiency virus type 1 env in heterosexual seroconverters from Northern Thailand.
The C2-V3 region of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1 env was determined from 15 northern Thailand seroconverters between 1993 and 1995. Similar sequences were also determined from 18 seroconverting injection drug users in Baltimore. All seroconverters from northern Thailand were infected with subtype E HIV-1 on the basis of env sequences. Intersubject viral DNA distances increased from ...
متن کاملimmunoinformatics study of gp120 of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 subtype crf35_ad isolated from iranian patients
background human immunodeficiency virus (hiv)-1 infection is one of the most important infectious diseases in iran, and common isolates belong to the new crf35_ad subtypes. the gp120 protein, which is located on the surface of the hiv envelope, plays a role in entrance into host cells and immune responses. as there isn’t any clear analysis of the envelope protein of iranian isolates regarding p...
متن کاملScreening and confirmation of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 infection solely by detection of RNA.
Diagnosis of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection by antibody-based testing allows for some recently infected individuals to be falsely assessed as non-infected. Since such individuals often have high viral loads and are capable of transmitting HIV, it is an imperative public health need to identify these individuals. We investigated the feasibility and capability of a diagnostic algori...
متن کاملSimian-human immunodeficiency virus containing a human immunodeficiency virus type 1 subtype-E envelope gene: persistent infection, CD4(+) T-cell depletion, and mucosal membrane transmission in macaques.
The envelope (env) glycoprotein of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) determines several viral properties (e.g., coreceptor usage, cell tropism, and cytopathicity) and is a major target of antiviral immune responses. Most investigations on env have been conducted on subtype-B viral strains, prevalent in North America and Europe. Our study aimed to analyze env genes of subtype-E viral s...
