Origin of HIV-1 in the chimpanzee Pan troglodytes troglodytes.

Nature, 397, 436-440, 1999.

Order of authorship in the original paper: Gao, Bailes, Robertson, Hahn. Demonstration, led by Hahn, that HIV-1 originated specifically in the chimpanzee--a mutant of the chimp SIV (SIV-cpz) which acquired mutations sufficient to allow it to jump from chimpanzee to humans.
