Abstract excerpt
In order to study the basis of resistance of human immunodeficiency virus, type 1 (HIV-1), to HIV-1 protease inhibitor saquinavir, the catalytic and inhibition properties of the wild-type HIV-1 protease and three saquinavir resistant mutants, G48V, L90M, and G48V/L90M, were compared. The kinetic...
