Sequences corresponding to HXB2 6392–7642 in the RNA genome (or Env 58–473 in protein sequence). The analysis was performed with MEGA5. Data are shown as means±SD. Subtype C/CRF07_BC/CRF08_BC sequences circulating in China were retrieved from the HIV database at the Los Alamos National Laboratory (www.hiv.lanl.gov).
