Abstract excerpt
The existence of zidovudine (ZDV)-resistant and didanosine (ddI)-resistant human immunodeficiency-1 (HIV-1) variants mutated in the reverse transcriptase (RT) gene has been previously demonstrated. In this study, we tried to follow up the genotypic changes in the RT after the switch of therapy from ZDV to ddI. We studied HIV-1 isolates from 11 patients undergoing ddI therapy. Genotypic data were obtained with...
