Abstract excerpt
Different tissues or body fluids in which human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) can reside may contain viruses with distinct characteristics. Sixteen HIV-1-infected patients receiving zidovudine or didanosine were studied cross-sectionally and 1 patient who switched from zidovudine to didanosine was followed sequentially to determine if drug resistance mutations within the HIV-1 pol gene at codons 74 and...
