Abstract excerpt
Difficulties in deciphering the mechanisms of 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine (AZT)-resistance by human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) variants are due in part to an inability to reconstitute resistance in vitro using AZT-resistant reverse transcriptases. We decided to characterize mechanisms of AZT resistance in tissue culture infections by studying the ability of drug-resistant viruses to synthesize viral DNA...
