Abstract excerpt
The use of antiretroviral drugs is accompanied by the emergence of HIV-2 resistances. Thus, it is important to elucidate the mechanisms of resistance to antiretroviral drugs. Here, we propose a structural analysis of 31 drug-resistant mutants of HIV-2 protease (PR2) that is an important target against HIV-2 infection. First, we modeled the structures of each mutant. We then located structural shifts putatively...
