Characterizing the emergence and persistence of drug resistant mutations in HIV-1 subtype C infections using 454 ultra deep pyrosequencing. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND: The role of HIV-1 RNA in the emergence of resistance to antiretroviral therapies (ARTs) is well documented while less is known about the role of historical viruses stored in the proviral DNA. The primary focus of this work was to characterize

Predictions of the emergence of vaccine-resistant hepatitis B in The Gambia using a mathematical model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Vaccine escape variants of hepatitis B virus (HBV) have been identified world-wide. A mathematical model of HBV transmission is used to investigate the potential pattern of emergence of such variants.

Setting a baseline for global urban virome surveillance in sewage [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The rapid development of megacities, and their growing connectedness across the world is becoming a distinct driver for emerging disease outbreaks. Early detection of unusual disease emergence and spread should therefore include such cities as part of ...

The HIV-1 Subtype C Epidemic in South America Is Linked to the United Kingdom [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background: The global spread of HIV-1 has been accompanied by the emergence of genetically distinct viral strains. Over the past two decades subtype C viruses, which predominate in Southern and Eastern Africa, have spread rapidly throughout parts of ...
