| identification of a newly characterized hiv-1 bg intersubtype circulating recombinant form in galicia, spain, which exhibits a pseudotype-like virion structure. | we recently reported the finding of phylogenetically related hiv-1 bg intersubtype recombinant and g subtype nonrecombinant viruses circulating among injecting drug users in the region of galicia in northwestern spain. here, we report the characterization of near full-length genome sequences of nine of these viruses (seven bg recombinant and two of nonrecombinant g subtype), obtained from epidemiologically unlinked individuals. bootscan analysis reveals that six recombinant viruses share an iden ... | 2002 | 11981372 |
