Phylogenetic reconstruction of intrapatient evolution of human immunodeficiency virus type 1: predominance of drift and purifying selection.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The intra-host evolution of 73 human immunodeficiency virus type 1 quasispecies was analysed by split decomposition analysis. Non-synonymous and synonymous nucleotide substitutions were counted along the shortest path connecting all sequences and compared with the numbers expected under the assumption of a random model of mutation. For the majority of substitutions, drift and negative selection seemed to prevail.

Evolution of the human immunodeficiency virus envelope gene is dominated by purifying selection.
The evolution of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1) during chronic infection involves the rapid, continuous turnover of genetic diversity. However, the role of natural selection, relative to random genetic drift, in governing this process is unclear. We tested a stochastic model of genetic drift using partial envelope sequences sampled longitudinally in 28 infected children. In each case ...
متن کاملPhylogenetic Analysis of Three Long Non-coding RNA Genes: AK082072, AK043754 and AK082467
Now, it is clear that protein is just one of the most functional products produced by the eukaryotic genome. Indeed, a major part of the human genome is transcribed to non-coding sequences than to the coding sequence of the protein. In this study, we selected three long non-coding RNAs namely AK082072, AK043754 and AK082467 which show brain expression and local region conservation among vertebr...
متن کاملInfluence of random genetic drift on human immunodeficiency virus type 1 env evolution during chronic infection.
Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) has high replication and mutation rates that generate large census populations and high levels of genetic variation. We examined the roles of natural selection, population growth, random genetic drift, and recombination in shaping the variation in 1509 C2-V5 env sequences derived from nine men with chronic HIV-1 infection. These sequences were obtaine...
متن کاملHost-specific driving force in human immunodeficiency virus type 1 evolution in vivo.
To investigate the process of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) evolution in vivo, a total of 179 HIV-1 V3 sequences derived from cell-free plasma were determined from serial samples in three epidemiologically linked individuals (one infected blood donor and two transfusion recipients) over a maximum period of 8 years. A systematic analysis of pairwise comparisons of intrapatient sequ...
متن کاملEvolution of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 coreceptor usage during antiretroviral Therapy: a Bayesian approach.
There is substantial evidence for ongoing replication and evolution of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1), even in individuals receiving highly active antiretroviral therapy. Viral evolution in the presence of antiviral therapy needs to be considered when developing new therapeutic strategies. Phylogenetic analyses of HIV-1 sequences can be used for this purpose but may give rise to mi...
