Differential Influence of Nucleoside Analog-resistance Mutations K65R and L74V on the Overall Mutation Rate and Error Specificity of Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 Reverse Transcriptase
2000-09-01
Abstract excerpt
Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) reverse transcriptase (RT) variants with the K65R or L74V substitution display resistance to several nucleoside analogs. An in vitro dNTP exclusion assay revealed an increased fidelity for K65R RT compared with wild-type RT, but little change for L74V RT. When the forward mutation rates were measured via a gap-filling assay, the K65R variant displayed an 8-fold decrease...
