Systematic molecular dynamics, MM-PBSA, and ab initio approaches to the saquinavir resistance mechanism in HIV-1 PR due to 11 double and multiple mutations.

Abstract excerpt

Mutations in the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) enable virus replication even when appropriate antiretroviral therapy is followed, thus leading to the emergence of drug resistance. In a previous work, we systematically examined seven single mutations that are associated with saquinavir (SQV) resistance in HIV-1 protease (Tzoupis, H.; Leonis, G.; Mavromoustakos, T.; Papadopoulos, M. G. J. Chem. Theory Comput....
