Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The Murex-Innogenetics LiPA HIV-1 RT assay can be used to identify the presence of mutations of the reverse transcriptase gene at codons 41, 69, 70, 74, 184 and 215 of HIV-1, which have been shown to confer resistance to the nucleoside analogs Zidovudine (ZDV), Lamivudine (3TC), Didanosine (ddI) and Zalcitabine (ddC). The M184V mutation of the reverse transcriptase gene of HIV-1 has been associated...
