Abstract excerpt
The vast majority of HIV-1 infections worldwide are caused by the C and A viral subtypes rather than the B subtype prevalent in the United States and Western Europe. Genomic differences between subtypes give rise to sequence variations in the encoded proteins, including those identified as targets for antiretroviral therapies. In the case of the HIV-1 protease, we reported earlier [Velazquez-Campoy et al. (2001)...
