Abstract: Two patterns of mutations in the protease were identified: (M46I/L, I54V, V82A/T/F) was associated to the A431V and (K20I/R/M, L89M/I) to the S373Q and L449P.
HIV-1 subtype B protease and reverse transcriptase amino acid covariation.
Abstract: The proportion of substitutions L63P, A71T/V, V77I and I93L in subtype B' sequences was considerably higher than in CRF01_AE viruses, while the proportion of L10I, M36I and K20R/I substitutions in subtype B' sequences was relatively lower than in CRF01_AE strains.
Characterization of drug-resistance mutations in HIV-1 isolates from non-HAART and HAART treated patients in Burkina Faso.
Abstract: As expected, all patients presented the common (non-B subtype) M36I polymorphism and 26/29 (90%) the K20I mutation.

Abstract: Resistance-associated polymorphisms (K20I and M36I) were prevalent in the complete protease (PR) region, but no primary drug resistance mutations were detected.
Virological responses to atazanavir-ritonavir-based regimens: resistance-substitutions score and pharmacokinetic parameters (Reyaphar study).
Abstract: The Reyaphar score included 12 baseline protease substitutions from the International AIDS Society USA list that were associated with poorer VR: L10I/F/R/V, K20I/M/R, L241, M461/L, 154L/M/T/V, L63P, A71I/L/V/T, G73A/C/F/T, V771, V82A/F/S/T, 184V, L90M and the polymorphism substitution Q58E.
Natural polymorphisms in the protease gene modulate the replicative capacity of non-B HIV-1 variants in the absence of drug pressure.
Abstract: All but one drug-naive individual carrying non-B viru
Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of two natural protease (PR) polymorphisms, K20I and M36I, which are frequently found in non-B subtypes, on the virus replicative capacity in the presence and absence of protease inhibitors (PI).
Abstract: RESULTS: In the absence of drug, the M36I clone replicated more rapidly than wt (wild type) or the double mutant K20I/M36I.
Abstract: STUDY DESIGN: Infectious HIV-1 clones carrying K20I, M36I or K20I/M36I were designed.

Abstract: Within the protease region, all 18 isolates had mutations/polymorphic substitutions at six locations compared to the HIV-1 NL4-3 reference sequence, two of which have been associated with resistance to protease inhibitors (K20I and M36I).
