Fitness Comparison of Thymidine Analog Resistance Pathways in Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1
29 Jun 2006
Abstract excerpt
Resistance to zidovudine (ZDV) results from thymidine analog resistance mutations (TAMs) at human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) reverse transcriptase (RT) codons 41, 67, 70, 210, 215, and 219. Two mutations are possible at codon 215: Y or F. Whereas T215Y occurs alone or with M41L and L210W (TAM-1 pattern), T215F rarely occurs with these mutations or by itself; it is found instead with D67N, K70R, and...
