Alterations in HIV-1 gp120 V3 region are necessary but not sufficient for coreceptor switching in CRF07_BC in China.
The most predominant HIV-1 strains in China's current epidemic is the Circulating Recombinant Form 07_BC (CRF07_BC). CRF07_BC is mainly considered as a CCR5-tropic (R5) virus, since CXCR4-tropic (X4) viruses have thus far not been found in this subtype, and the molecular determinants of corecep...
