Most drug-resistance mutations against all four classes of drugs are usually present only at low frequencies (much lower than 50% with the one exception of M184V in RT) in the drug-experienced dataset (Table 2:source datas 1, 2, 3, 4);but many of these mutations (with the exception of those conferring resistance to the NNRTIs) are highly 'entrenched in the population' of sequences where they do occur (Table 2), meaning that the mutation is more likely than the wild-type residue in these particular backgrounds, with low probability of reversion.
