Appraising the performance of genotyping tools in the prediction of coreceptor tropism in HIV-1 subtype C viruses

BACKGROUND: In human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection, transmitted viruses generally use the CCR5 chemokine receptor as a coreceptor for host cell entry. In more than 50% of subtype B infections, a switch in coreceptor tropism from CCR5- to CXCR4-use occurs during disease progression....
