Abstract excerpt
The prolonged use of anti-viral nucleosides (ZDV, ddI, ddC) in HIV-infected patients has given rise to the isolation of viral variants that display resistance against these compounds. Tissue culture selection experiments, involving increasing concentrations of anti-viral compounds, have likewise been shown to select for drug-resistant strains of HIV. Cloning, sequencing and site-directed mutagenesis have shown...
