Abstract excerpt
Human cytomegalovirus UL54 DNA polymerase gene mutations that confer foscarnet resistance in clinical practice typically cluster in the amino terminal 2, palm and finger domains. Exposure to foscarnet in cell culture selected for mutations elsewhere in UL54, including amino acid substitutions S290R in the amino terminal 1 domain and E951D in the palm 2 domain. These are newly confirmed to confer foscarnet...
