The high frequency of multiple HIV-1 recombinant events among the B, C and CRF01_AE were constantly occurring in Yunnan China. Here, we characterized a novel HIV-1 circulating recombinant form (CRF) consisting of CRF01_AE and subtype B (CRF101_01B) from three epidemiologically unlinked individuals. Phylogenetic analysis based on near full length genome (NFLG) sequences revealed that CRF101_01B formed a distinct monophyletic cluster supported by a high bootstrap value of 100%, distantly related to all known HIV-1 CRFs. CRF101_01B had a CRF01_AE backbone with two B segments inserted, respectively, in the gag and pol region. Further, subregion tree analysis showed that CRF01_AE backbone and subtype B segment inserted originated from a Thailand lineage. In addition, our study found that CRF101_01B originated around the year 1996-1998. This findings described a novel HIV-1 CRF, and highlighted the importance of continual monitoring of genetic diversity and complexity of HIV-1 strains in Yunnan, China.
