Characterization of HIV-1 gag and nef in Cameroon: further evidence of extreme diversity at the origin of the HIV-1 group M epidemic

Author: Tongo, Marcel ; Martin, Darren ; Zembe, Lycias ; Mpoudi-Ngole, Eitel ; Williamson, Carolyn ; Burgers, Wendy Date: 2013 BACKGROUND: Cameroon, in west central Africa, has an extraordinary degree of HIV diversity, presenting a major challenge for the development of an effective HIV vaccine. Given the continuing need to closely monitor the emergence of new HIV ... Read more c b
Elucidation of Early Evolution of HIV-1 Group M in the Congo Basin Using Computational Methods

Author: Tongo, Marcel ; Martin, Darren P ; Dorfman, Jeffrey R Date: 02 Apr 2021 The Congo Basin region is believed to be the site of the cross-species transmission event that yielded HIV-1 group M (HIV-1M). It is thus likely that the virus has been present and evolving in the region since that cross-species transmission. ... Read more c b
High Degree of HIV-1 group M Genetic Diversity within Circulating Recombinant Forms: Insight into the Early Events of HIV-1M Evolution

Author: Tongo, Marcel ; Dorfman, Jeffrey Robert ; Martin, Darren Patrick Date: 15 Mar 2016 The existence of various highly divergent HIV-1 lineages and of recombination-derived sequence tracts of indeterminate origin within established circulating recombinant forms (CRFs) strongly suggests that HIV-1 group M (HIV-1M) diversity is ...
