Abstract excerpt
A major problem in the antiretroviral treatment of HIV-infections with protease-inhibitors is the emergence of resistance, resulting from the occurrence of distinct mutations within the protease molecule. In the present work we investigated the structural properties of a triple mutant (I54V-V82A-L90M) and a double mutant (V82A-L90M) that both confer strong resistance to ritonavir (RTV), but not to amprenavir...
