Abstract
Background:In the Hebei province, Human Immunodeficiency Virus type one (HIV-1) recombinant strains of subtypes B, C, and CRF01_AE are emerging very rapidly and diversely.
Objective:In order to confirm the characteristics of novel recombination forms, we aimed to analyze HIV-1 Near-full-length Genome sequences (NFLGs) obtained from three Men who have Sex with Men (MSM) in this study.
Methods:Phylogenetic trees were constructed and breakpoints analysis was performed based on the NFLGs and each gene fragment to examine the gene recombination patterns of three new HIV-1 NFLGs.
Results:HIV-1 subtypes CRF01_AE and B were combined to generate the recombinant structures of the NFLGs 610 and 687. CRF01_AE, B, and C were combined to generate the recombinant structures of the NFLG 825. According to the NFLG phylogenetic tree, the NFLG 825 clustered with CRF65_cpx and the NFLGs 610 and 687 clustered with CRF68_01B. The recombination breakpoints analysis revealed that the recombination pattern of the NFLGs 610 and 687 was the insertion of subtype B fragment into the CRF01_AE backbone. Subregions I, II, and III were derived from CRF01_AE, subtype B, and CRF01_AE, respectively. The recombination pattern of the NFLG 825 contained ten fragments of subtypes CRF01_AE, C, and B. Finally, the above factors were formed using phylogenetic trees and breakpoints analysis, which were combined to get two CRF68_01B forms and one CRF65_cpx form.
Conclusion:Our findings have suggested that it is crucial to keep an eye on the genetic diversity of HIV-1 in Hebei province.
