Structure-Function Analysis of Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 gp120 Amino Acid Mutations Associated with Resistance to the CCR5 Coreceptor Antagonist Vicriviroc
24 Sept 2009
Abstract excerpt
Vicriviroc (VCV) is a small-molecule CCR5 coreceptor antagonist currently in clinical trials for treatment of R5-tropic human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection. With this drug in development, identification of resistance mechanisms to VCV is needed to allow optimal outcomes in clinical practice. In this study we further characterized VCV resistance in a lab-adapted, VCV-resistant RU570 virus...
