Abstract excerpt
HIV-1 protease (PR) is an essential enzyme in the viral life cycle and a primary target of antiretroviral therapies, particularly protease inhibitors (PIs). Understanding the dynamics of viral evolution and the factors governing the emergence or loss of resistance-associated mutations is critical for improving PI efficacy and managing drug resistance in HIV/AIDS treatment. In this study, we investigated the...
