Abstract: In three other patients, viruses with N155H emerged at viral rebound either alone (2 months), followed by V151I (8 months) or alone (10 months), or together with V151I/G163RG (7 months).
Abstract: Mutations Q148R (2 months) followed by G140A/Q148R and then G140A/Y143CHR/Q148R/G163R were detected in the virus from one patient, and these reverted to wild type when treatment was withdrawn, although clonal analysis identified maintenance of RAL resistance minority species at this time point.
Abstract: RAL treatment was restarted after 6 months, and 2 weeks later, PMID: 18702518

Introduction: Additional mutations have been reported (L74M, E92Q, E138K, G140S/A and G163R).
Natural variation of HIV-1 group M integrase: implications for a new class of antiretroviral inhibitors.
Abstract: Several accessory INI-resistance mutations including L74M, T97A, V151I, G163R, and S230N were also polymorphic with polymorphism rates ranging between 0.5% to 2.0%.
Result: Among mutations selected by raltegravir or elvitegravir that have not been shown to directly reduce susceptibility, L74R, Q95K, E138A/K, and H183P were conserved, whereas V54I, L68V, L74M, T97A, V151I, G163R, and I203M
Natural polymorphism of the HIV-1 integrase gene and mutations associated with integrase inhibitor resistance.
Abstract: Of the 42 aa substitutions currently associated with INI resistance, 21 occurred as natural polymorphisms: V72I, L74I, T97A, T112I, A128T, E138K, Q148H, V151I, S153Y/A, M154I, N155H, K156N, E157Q, G163R, V165I, V201I, I203M, T206S, S230N and R263K.
Cooperation of multiple CCR5 coreceptors is required for infections by human immunodeficiency virus type 1.
Abstract: To address these issues, we studied the effects of CCR5 concentrations on HIV-1 infections using wild-type CCR5 and two attenuated mutant CCR5s, one with the mutation Y14N at a critical tyrosine sulfation site in the amino terminus and one with the mutation G163R in extracellular loop 2.
