Abstract excerpt
Two large, independent human immunodeficiency virus type 1 resistance databases containing >7700 reverse-transcriptase (RT) sequences were used to analyze the epidemiology of amino acid substitutions at codons 44 and 118, which confer moderate lamivudine resistance in the presence of zidovudine resistance. As expected, E44A/D and V118I mutations were strongly associated with M41L, D67N, L210W, and T215Y but also...
