CREATING A COLLECTION OF UP-TO-DATE ISOLATES OF HIV-1 INCLUDE MAJOR RUSSIAN GENOVARIANTS VIRUS
Abstract
We created a representative collection of infectious HIV-1 isolates including major variants of virus that determine HIV/AIDS epidemic in Russia. We isolated and described 65 infectious HIV-1 CRF63_02А1, subtype A , B and CRF02_АG .
