Multiple recombinant events in human T-cell Leukemia virus Type 1: complete sequences of recombinant African strains

Multiple recombinant events in human T-cell Leukemia virus Type 1: complete sequences of recombinant African strains

ABSTRACTAfrica is the largest endemic area for HTLV-1, with many molecular genotypes. We previously demonstrated that some strains from North Africa (a-NA clade) originated from a recombinant event between Senegalese and West African strains. A series of 52 new HTLV-1 strains from 13 North and West...
