Introduction: Our previous study of HIV-1
gag in a large
HIV-1-infected cohort (N=431) identified three positively selected (PS) amino acids,
V7I and
I34L in the p17 region of
gag (unpublished) and
K403R in the p7 region of
gag.
Introduction: The
K403R mutation was found to be significantly associated with A*0301 after multiple test corrections in and following reanalysis of the raw data, the
V7I and
I34L mutations were also found to be associated with A*0301.
Method: The
V7I and
I34L were both found to be significant in this study even though they missed t
