Molecular epidemiology of human T lymphotropic virus type 1 transmission in Okinawa, Japan

To clarify the route of human T lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) transmission, we sequenced three proviral genome regions (gag, env, int) of HTLV-1 from 18 carriers in 7 families in Okinawa, Japan and compared the strains with isolates from other countries. The nucleotide substitution frequency am...
