The lineage of HIV-2-like viruses was studied in feral sooty mangabeys (SMs) by serological and genetic methods. Four feral sooty mangabeys were positive for simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) antibodies and a new isolate, SIVsmSL92a, was obtained. Genetic analysis of gag genes showed that SIVsmSL92a was highly diverse and a distinct sequence subtype within the SIV sm/HIV-2 family. The results showed that SIVsm is the most diverse group of SIVs found thus far in a single monkey species.
通过血清学和遗传学方法，对野生黑猩猩体内的HIV-2样病毒谱系进行了研究。四只野生黑猩猩的猿猴免疫缺陷病毒（SIV）抗体呈阳性，并获得了一种新的分离株SIVsmSL92a。对gag基因的遗传分析表明，SIVsmSL92a具有高度多样性，是SIV sm/HIV-2家族中的一个独特序列亚型。结果表明，SIVsm是迄今为止在单一猴种中发现的最具多样性的SIV群体。
