Mutations in Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 RNase H Primer Grip Enhance 3′-Azido-3′-Deoxythymidine Resistance
12 Apr 2007
Abstract excerpt
We recently observed that mutations in the human immunodeficiency type 1 (HIV-1) reverse transcriptase (RT) connection domain significantly increase 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine (AZT) resistance up to 536 times over wild-type (WT) RT in the presence of thymidine analog resistance mutations (TAMs). These mutations also decreased RT template switching, suggesting that they altered the balance between nucleotide...
