Abstract excerpt
Zidovudine (3'-azido-2',3'-dideoxythymidine) resistant isolates of human immunodeficiency virus type I (HIV-1) were previously demonstrated in zidovudine-treated AIDS patients. The genetic linkage of multiple mutations characteristic of zidovudine-resistance as well as dideoxyinosine-resistance were demonstrated by examining clones of viral reverse transcriptase after polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification...
