The CpG dinucleotide content of the HIV-1 envelope gene may predict disease progression

Abstract The clinical course of HIV-1 varies greatly among infected individuals. Despite extensive research, virus factors associated with slow-progression remain poorly understood. Identification of unique HIV-1 genomic signatures linked to slow-progression remains elusive. We investigated CpG dinu...
