HIV 1 subtype
Active
Description
HIV-1 is the most common and pathogenic strain of the virus. Scientists divide HIV-1 into a major group (Group M) and two or more minor groups. Each group is believed to represent an independent transmission of SIV into humans (but subtypes within a group are not). With 'M' for "major", the M group is by far the most common type of HIV, with more than 90% of HIV/AIDS cases deriving from infection with HIV-1 group M. The M group is subdivided further into clades, called subtypes, that are also given a letter. There are also "circulating recombinant forms" or CRFs derived from recombination between viruses of different subtypes which are each given a number. CRF12_BF, for example, is a recombination between subtypes B and F. Subtype A is common in West Africa. Subtype B is the dominant form in Europe, the Americas, Japan, Thailand, and Australia. Subtype C is the dominant form in Southern Africa, India, and Nepal. Subtype D is generally only seen in Eastern and central Africa. (Subtype E) has never been identified as a nonrecombinant, only recombined with subtype A as CRF01_AE. Subtype F has been found in central Africa, South America and Eastern Europe. Subtype G (and the CRF02_AG) have been found in Africa and central Europe. Subtype H is limited to central Africa. (Subtype I) was originally used to describe a strain that is now accounted for as CRF04_cpx, with the cpx for a "complex" recombination of several subtypes. Subtype J is primarily found in North, Central and West Africa, and the Caribbean Subtype K is limited to the Democratic Republic of Congo and Cameroon. These subtypes are sometimes further split into sub-subtypes such as A1 and A2 or F1 and F2. This is not thought to be a complete or final list, and further types are likely to be found.
