Abstract: Accessory RAMs were present in 8.1% (n = 3/37) of the sequences, of which one sequence contained solely E157Q, and another Q95K.
Abstract: One patient sequence had three accessory RAMs (G140E, E157Q, and G163R).

Method: Secondary INSTI-R substitutions were M50I, H51Y, L68V/I, V72A/N/T, L74M, Q95K/R, G118R, S119P/R/T, F121C, A128T, E138K/A, G140A/C/S, P145S, Q146R/I/K/L/P, V151L/A, S153A/F/Y, E157K/Q, G163K/R and E

Result: Fifteen participants had integrase DRM20% (15/83, 18.1%), including Q148R conferring low-level resistance to dolutegravir, and some accessory integrase mutations were also found: L74I/M (n = 12/15, 80.0%), E157Q (n = 1) and G163R (n = 1).
Result: While no major mutation was described for dolutegravir resistance, we found some accessory integrase mutations in 98/524 (18.7%), such as L74I/M (n = 81/98, 82.7%), T97A (n = 8/98, 8.2%) and E157Q (n = 5/98, 5.1%), and more sporadically E138D/K (n = 2), V151I (n = 1) and G163R

Abstract: Overall there was absence of major INSTI resistance mutation, however, E157Q (13.79%) emerged as common polymorphic mutation.

Result: No PDR mutations were observed to PIs and only the polymorphism E157Q with minimal effect on INSTI susceptibility was observed in three patients.
Result: No RAMs were observed to INSTIs; only the polymorphisms E157Q (n = 2), G163KR (n = 2) and T97A (n = 1) were observed, which have minimal effect on INSTI susceptibility.

E157Q integrase strand-transfer inhibitor substitution in patients with acute/recent HIV infection.
Abstract: CONCLUSION: E157Q substitution, reducing raltegravir and elvitegravir activity, was frequently found in acute/recent HIV cases.
Abstract: Polymorphic substitutions that reduce InSTIs activity have been described, with E157Q being one of the most frequently found.
Abstract: RESULTS: In six out of 67 consecutive patients (8.95%, 95% confidence interval 4.17-18.19) with acute/recent HIV infection, strains carrying the E157Q InSTI substitution were detected.
Abstract: This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of E157Q substitution in newly diagnosed acute/recent HIV cases and the presence of transmission clusters.
Raltegravir-Induced Adaptations of the HIV-1 Integrase: Analysis of Structure, Variability, and Mutation Co-occurrence.
Result: Also, the VG1 position 157, which may have the mutation E157Q, does not appear to influence the INSTI therapy but is selected in treated patients.
Result: Cluster D, on the other hand, has E157Q, which is a resistance-related mutation with minimal effects on RAL, and occurs in a VG1 position.
Result: The resistance-related mutations found in the network were L74M, L74I, T97A, E138K, G140S, Y143R, Q148H, Q148R, N155H, E157Q, G163R, M50I, and
Lack of HIV-1 integrase inhibitor resistance among 392 antiretroviral-naive individuals in a tertiary care hospital in Beijing, China.
Abstract: Two individuals harbored INSTI accessory mutations E157Q/T97A were detected for the first time.
Antiviral activity of HIV-1 integrase strand-transfer inhibitors against mutants with integrase resistance-associated mutations and their frequency in treatment-naive individuals.
Abstract: Total 6 of 39 minor INSTI-R mutations (M50I, S119P/G/T/R, and E157Q) were found in >1% of IN-treatment-naive subjects with no impact on INSTI susceptibility.
Abstract: When each combined with major INSTI-R mutation, M50I, S119P, and E157Q led to decreased susceptibility to elvitegravir but remained sensitive to dolutegravir and bictegravir.
