Abstract excerpt
Reverse transcriptase (RT) of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) has low fidelity compared with RTs of other retroviruses and cellular DNA polymerases. We and others have previously found that the fidelity of DNA-dependent DNA polymerization (DDDP) of M184V-mutated HIV-1 RT is significan...
