Evidence
|
Sequence analysis of the RT domain of resistant strains, at the time of breakthrough of virus, revealed the occurrence of mutations located in the YMDD motif within the C domain of the viral enzyme, with a methionine→valine (M552V) or methionine→isoleucine (M552I) change, as also described in human immunodeficiency virus strains resistant to lamivudine
