Abstract excerpt
We describe the selection of a previously unreported 21-base pair insertion following codon 69 of the HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (RT) from a patient undergoing multiple nucleoside analogue therapy. This insertion was a direct duplication of the preceding 21 bases of HIV-RT, and was selected in a background of NRTI-resistance mutations including substitutions at RT codons 41, 67, 184, 210, and 215. Longitudinal...
