The K101P and K103R/V179D Mutations in Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 Reverse Transcriptase Confer Resistance to Nonnucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors

Abstract
Genotypic patterns associated with nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) resistance in the absence of well-characterized resistance mutations were identified using a database (n> 47,000) of phenotype-genotype data. Among samples with no known NNRTI mutations, the most resistant samples contained K101P (n= 35) or a combination of K103R and V179D (n= 41). Site-directed mutagenesis confirmed the importance of these mutations.
