	Vpr is highly conserved in HIV and simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) ~~{{Wikipedia\|Simian_immunodeficiency_virus}}~~, similar retrovirus which infects non-human primates<ref>PMID:12614620</ref>. In addition, all primate lentiviruses ~~{{Wikipedia\|Lentivirus}}~~ has vpr gene whose protein product has highly conserved motifs. HIV-2 and SIVsm lentiviruses have additionally gene - vpx. In these lentiviruses, vpr and vpx executes together the roles which HIV-1 vpr perform. Vpr and Vpx has low conservation between them.
