Abstract: In subtype B-infected individuals, the various HR1 region substitutions in env gp41 that have been associated with ENF resistance include A30V, L33S/T/V, L34M, G36D/E/S/V, I37T/K/V, V38A/M/E/G, Q39R, Q40H, N42T/D, N43D/K/S, L44M, L45M, R46M, L54M, and Q56K/R as well as N126K and

Introduction: As seen in figure 4, V38E and V38A along with G36D replicated faster and to higher levels than WT.
Introduction: Furthermore, the Enfuvirtide resistant virus G36D (G547D based on Env numbering) was shown to be reduced in its bystander apoptosis inducing potential.
Introduction: However, in another study by Descamps et al G36D was associated with increased CD4 counts although not statistically significant.
Introduction: The degree of resistance was in the order WT<V38M< G36D<V38A<V38E (Table 1).

Introduction: The mutations analyzed included (1) mutations in HR1 that are associated with a >10-fold reduction in most clinical isolates and site-directed mutants (major mutations: G36D/E, V38A/E, Q40H, and N43D), (2) other ENF resistance mutations in HR1 (G36S/V, I37V, V38G/M, N42T, N43K, L44M, and L45M), (3) N42S, a natural polymorphism in HR1 that has been associated with ENF hypersusceptibility, and (4) HR2 accessory mutations (N126K, E137K, and S138A).

Abstract: Amino acid changes in codons G36D/S, I37V, V38A/M/E, Q39H/R, Q40H, N42T, and N43D can confer resistance to EFV.
Abstract: In contrast, when 1079 sequences from drug-naive patients were analyzed, only one showed the G36D substitution.
Abstract: This finding indicates a strong association between the selected position G36D and HAART therapy (p < 0.0001).
Abstract: We found a high prevalence (7.6%) of EFV-associated mutation G36D in this cohort of patients failing HAART therapy, five isolates from subtype B (11.11% within this group).

1Abstract: In HIV-1-infected SCID-hu Thy/Liv mice, T-20 lost activity with infrequent dosing, whereas the antiviral potency of PC-1505 was sustained, and PC-1505 was active against T-20-resistant (""DIV"") virus with a G36D substitution in gp41."
Method: pNL4-3 from the AIDS Reagent Program contains an unexpected variant DIV (G36D) mutation in gp41, which confers 8-fold resistance to T-20 in vitro.

Abstract: Resistance to T-1249 gradually increased to a geometric mean 92.7-fold decrease from FI-naive baseline; this occurred concomitant with further evolution of gp41 amino acids 36-45, most commonly the G36D (n = 6, 16%) or N43K (n = 9, 24%) substitutions.
