[Recombinant human immunodeficiency viruses].
Three types of recombinant human immunodeficiency virus have been found to circulate in Russia. The first type of the virus belongs to genotype gagAenvB, the second type belongs to genotype gagDenvG and the third type, to genotype gagAenvE. The virus of genotype gagAenvB circUlates in the population of drug addicts simultaneously with its "parent" viruses of genotypes gagAenvA and gagBenvB. The recombinant variant gagDenvG has African origin. The recombinant variant gagAenvE has probably been imported to Russia from South-East Asia.
