Abstract excerpt
Therapeutic use of maribavir for human cytomegalovirus infection has renewed attention to the extent of cross-resistance with ganciclovir as the existing standard therapy. Each drug selects in vivo for a characteristic set of resistance mutations in the viral UL97 kinase gene. To improve the calibration of relative susceptibilities to each drug, genetic variants at relevant UL97 codons were extensively phenotyped...
