Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The K103N mutation in HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (RT) confers high-level resistance to current non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTI). The prevalence and resistance profile of HIV-1 with other substitutions at RT codon 103 is less well documented. METHODS: K103 substitutions among over 70,000 clinical samples submitted for routine antiretroviral resistance testing at two independent...
