Phylogenetic trees of a the Protease-RT (899 bp) and b the gp41 (443 pb) regions. Sequences representative of HIV-1/M and HIV-1/O were downloaded from the Los Alamos database (hptt://www.hiv.lanl.gov). The four HIV-1/MO recombinants: (1) 97CA.MP645MO [10], (2) 02O.CM.1999.DSC1320 [12], (3) DO.FR.2008.RBF208 [13], and (4) KM438031 and KM438032 [14] are represented in bold italics. The new sequences obtained here are represented in bold. The gp41 HIV-1/O sequence of YBF298 could not be used for phylogenetic analysis, because of the relatively short length of the strain. SIVcpzGAB was used as the outgroup. Phylogenetic analyses were performed using MEGA software [32]: evolutionary distances were computed using the Kimura 2-parameter method; 1000 bootstrap replicates were performed to assess the reliability of the branching order. Bootstrap values are shown only when significant (>70)
