Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To compare baseline susceptibility to protease inhibitors among HIV-1 isolates of subtypes C, F, G and CRF02_AG, and to identify polymorphisms that determine the differences in susceptibility. METHODS: A total of 42 samples of drug-naive patients infected with subtypes G (n=19), CRF02_AG (n = 10), F (n = 6) and C (n = 7) were phenotyped and genotyped with the Antivirogram and the ViroSeq 2.0 genotyping...
