Sexual transmission of predicted CXCR4-tropic HIV-1 likely originating from the source partner's seminal cells. Gianella, S., Mehta, S. R., Young, J. A., Vargas, M. V., Little, S. J., Richman, D. D., Kosakovsky Pond, S. L., & Smith, D. M. Virology, 434(1):2–4, December, 2012.

We present a case of sexual transmission of HIV-1 predicted to have CXCR4-tropism during male-to-male sexual exposure. Phylogenetic analyses exclude cell-free virus in the seminal plasma of the source partner and possibly point to the seminal cells as the origin of the transmission event.
