| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
HIV-1 has two phenotypeswhich are using CCR5 called R5, or CXCR4 called X4 for its entry, respectively. It is well known that R5 virus is dominant throughout of the infection, while X4 virus emerges at late stage of infection, and associated with disease progression. This study suggested that HIV-1 is not switched from R5 to X4 virus, but both viruses are maintained in the same individuals, Although X4 virus replication is restricted in early stage of infection, X4 virus would be emerged by overcoming the replication of R5 virus at late stage of infection.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
HIV-1にはR5とX4と呼ばれる２種類のウイルスが存在しており，R5ウイルスは人から人への伝搬に関与し， X4ウイルスはAIDS発症に関連するウイルスであると考えられている。本研究はこのようなウイルスの変異がなぜ感染末期におこるのかを明らかにした。このことはこれら２種類のウイルスの性質の違いがAIDS発症に関わっていることを示しており，AIDS発症予防の戦略に対する基礎的な情報となることが期待される。
