However, the genetic diversity of Env among HIV-1 subtypes poses a challenge. Although evidence suggest that entry inhibitors in clinical use have comparable efficacy against HIV-1 subtypes, but a subset of anti-Env are resistant to HIV-1 subtype C which is the most globally prevalent virus. In a view to prevent infection of HIV-1 subtype C, we isolated nucleic acids ligands aptamers against HIV-1 subtype C Env pseudovirion and tested their efficacy.enHuman immunodeficiency virus type-IVirologyHIV-1 subtype C2'F-RNA AptamersEnvelope pseudovirusArticleLondon, G., Madiga, M., Gray, E., Sok, D., Morris, L., Burton, D., & Khati, M.
