We report here a novel HIV-1 circulating recombinant form (CRF) (CRF59_01B) comprised of CRF01_AE and subtype B, with two recombination breakpoints in the pol and vpu-env regions, respectively. CRF59_01B was identified from three epidemiologically unlinked men who have sex with men (MSM) in northeast China. This represents the second CRF identified in the MSM population in China.
我们在此报告一种新型的HIV-1循环重组型(CRF)(CRF59_01B),它由CRF01_AE和B亚型组成,在pol和vpu-env区域分别有两个重组断点。CRF59_01B是从中国东北地区三名无流行病学关联的男男性行为者(MSM)中鉴定出来的。这是在中国MSM人群中鉴定出的第二种CRF。
