Abstract

Nucleotide sequences of two HTLV-I proviruses isolated from Indian patients with HAM/TSP were analyzed. The sequence data of the env, pX, and LTR regions showed 98-99% homologies with the prototype HTLV-I, ATK-1, isolated from a Japanese ATL patient, indicating that HTLV-I isolates in India and Japan are similar, with minor variations. However, certain small sequences of noncoding regions in the pX and LTR showed differences of 6.1 and 7.2%, respectively, thus the conclusion could vary depending on the regions and length of the sequences used for comparison.
