Popis: | This study reports a novel HIV-1 recombinant form of CRF01_AE/B that was isolated from a 22-year-old male individual (HE150308) residing in Hebei province, China. The near full-length genome (NFLG) phylogenetic tree showed that the strain was clustered with CRF01_AE reference sequences and placed at the peripheral position within the branch of CRF01_AE strains. The bootscaning and similarity plot analysis revealed that the NFLG of this novel recombinant was composed of eight interlaced segments, including four CRF01_AE and four subtype B segments separated by seven breakpoints observed in the gag, pol, and nef regions of HIV-1 genome. Phylogenetic analysis demonstrated that the CRF01_AE subregions were from the previously identified CRF01_AE cluster 5, and the B subregions were correlated with the B strains originated from Europe and America. They were all the lineages widely prevalent in men who have sex with men (MSM) population in China. In recent years, a large number of recombinants between CRF01_AE and B strains are constantly emerging in the MSM population in China. This continual and recurrent recombination between CRF01_AE and B in high-risk group people deserves more attention and further monitoring. |
