Selective Excision of AZTMP by Drug-Resistant Human Immunodeficiency Virus Reverse Transcriptase
15 May 2001
Abstract excerpt
Two distinct mechanisms can be envisioned for resistance of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) reverse transcriptase (RT) to nucleoside analogs: one in which the mutations interfere with the ability of HIV-1 RT to incorporate the analog, and the other in which the mutations enhance the excision of the analog after it has been incorporated.
