To assess the effect of mutations at the CCR-2 and CCR-5 loci on heterosexual human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) transmission, 144 persons heterosexually exposed to HIV (infected and uninfected [EU]) and 57 HIV-positive index partners were genotyped, A significantly higher frequency of 64I heterozygotes at CCR-2 was observed in HIV-positive than in EU women (P = .02, relative risk = 1.6). The allele frequency of 64I in women was 8% in HIV-positive contacts and 1% in EUs (P
