摘要
The first molecular epidemiology study of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) in Panama has been performed with plasma samples from 66 AIDS patients infected by different transmission routes and obtained from distinct locations. All samples were amplified by RT-PCR and sequenced in gag (p17) and env (C2-C4) genes. Phylogenetic analyses revealed that 64 (97%) of the samples belong to subtype B. We also identified the presence of two CRF, one CRF12_BF and one CRF02_AG. The most notable feature of the subtype B epidemic in Panama was the large genetic distance among isolates with a mean of 15.2% but reaching up to 31.3% in env, indicating an epidemic with a long period of evolution.
