Abstract

More than 70 million people have been infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). There is no cure for HIV and modern treatment is only effective at delaying the onset of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. Incorporated HIV serves as a reservoir for constant release of virions. Knowing the locations and quantity of HIV in the reservoirs can help guide development of complete treatment. Patient/Organ-specific HIV genome reconstruction allows to significantly improve detection of sequences originating from HIV. In this paper, we present a novel personalized medicine approach based on the reconstruction of patient/organ-specific HIV genome sequences in latent reservoirs.
