Abstract excerpt
Reverse transcriptase-associated amino acid substitutions related to ddC, d4T, and nevirapine resistance have been found in isolates of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) from patients treated with AZT only. Sequence analysis of 23 isolates documented the presence of 4 unexpected mutations at amino acid residues related to drug resistance. Two isolates contained an aspartic residue in codon 69 associated...
