ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To analyze the genome mutations of HIV-1 gag, pol and env genes from HIV-infected paid blood donors in rural central China.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>DNA was extracted from peripheral blood mononuclear cells, gag (p17-p24), pol (PR-RT), env (C2-V5) genes were amplified by nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR), purified products were sequenced, and sequence data was analyzed by MEGA5.0 soft wares.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Twenty-three samples were subtype B, two samples were recombinant of subtype B and subtype C, one sample was recombinant of subtype CRF01_AE and subtype B. PI major resistance mutations were not found in the PR region. M184V, K101E and G190A were detected in the RT region, respectively.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Subtype B was the major HIV circulating genetic forms in this area. Most strains were sensitive to high active anti-retroviral therapy (HARRT). 91.7% V3 loop tip motifs of X4-tropic strains was GPGR. It showed that GPGR might be associated with accelerate disease progression to AIDS.</p>
