Evidence
|
Molecular modeling studies of adefovir diphosphate with the wild type and the mutant HBV polymerase-DNA complex demonstrated that the increase in adefovir sensitivity toward HBV polymerase mutants (rtL180M, rtM204V/I, rtL180M-M204V/I) is a result of increased van der Waals interaction and is supplemented by the decreased affinity of natural substrate toward the mutant HBV polymerase.
