Nevirapine resistance mutations of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 selected during therapy.

Abstract excerpt

Drug susceptibility and mutations in the reverse transcriptase (RT) gene were analyzed with 167 virus isolates from 38 patients treated with nevirapine, a potent nonnucleoside inhibitor of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) RT.
