| Abstract: | Background With the advent of entry inhibitors, monitoring of viral tropism in the clinical setting is important. Conventional methods
are cell-based and lengthy, therefore V3 sequence based prediction algorithms are becoming increasingly attractive as monitoring
tools. Here we report a comparative analysis of viral tropism of strains circulating in Cameroon where diverse and emerging
variant strains are prevalent. |
