Discussion: On the other hand, compensatory mutations such as
rtV173L,
rtQ215H, and
rtL80I/V have been detected only by direct sequencing and LIPA, respectively.
Discussion: Some compensatory mutations demonstrated in this study (
rtL80I/V,
rtV173L,
rtL180M,
rtQ215H) help to restore the replication efficiency of the mutant virus, but they tend to occur in the presence of antiviral selection pressure.
