Convergent evolution of reverse transcriptase (RT) genes of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 subtypes E and B following nucleoside analogue RT inhibitor therapies.
Abstract: Particularly, identical amino acid substitutions were present simultaneously at four different positions (D67N, K70R, T215F, and K219Q) for high-level AZT resistance.
Relative replication fitness of a high-level 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine-resistant variant of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 possessing an amino acid deletion at codon 67 and a novel substitution (Thr-->Gly) at codon 69.
Abstract: A competitive fitness study failed to reveal any differences in replication rates between the delta 67+T69G/K70R/L74I/K103N/T215F/+ ++K219Q mutant and Wt.
Abstract: A high-level 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine (AZT)-resistant variant containing delta 67 plus T69G/K70R/L74I/K103N/T215F/K219Q in RT replicated as efficiently as wild-type virus (Wt).
Abstract: Evaluation of proviral DNA sequences over a 3-year period in a patient harboring the multiresistant HIV revealed that the T69G mutation emer

Abstract: ATP-dependent removal of either d4TMP or 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine-5'-monophosphate (AZTMP) is increased in AZT resistant HIV-1 RT (containing D67N/K70R/T215F/K219Q mutations).

Abstract: Rapid failure was surprisingly associated with baseline presence of protease gene mutation L90M (P=.04) in the absence of D30N and with RT mutations D67N (P<.01), K70R/S (P=.02), and K219Q/W/R/E (P<.01).
Emergence of zidovudine and multidrug-resistance mutations in the HIV-1 reverse transcriptase gene in therapy-naive patients receiving stavudine plus didanosine combination therapy. STADI Group.
Abstract: RESULTS: At baseline, mutations associated with zidovudine resistance were detected in plasma from two patients: Asp67Asn/Lys219Gln and Leu210Trp.
HIV resistance to zidovudine: the role of pyrophosphorolysis.
Abstract: The potential replication deficit of an increased reverse reaction during DNA synthesis is compensated by increased DNA synthesis processivity, a phenotype that results from the T215F/Y/K219Q mutations in RT.
Abstract: While this resistance could be unequivocally correlated with multiple mutations in HIV reverse transcriptase (D67N, K70R, T215F/Y, K219Q), the mechanism or phenotype for this resistance has remained obscure for more than a decade, despite active investigation.
Retention of marked sensitivity to (S)-4-isopropoxycarbonyl-6-methoxy-3-(methylthiomethyl)-3,4-di hydroquin oxaline-2(1H)-thione (HBY 097) by an azidothymidine (AZT)-resistant human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) strain subcultured in the combined presence of quinoxaline HBY 097 and 2',3'-dideoxy-3'-thiacytidine (lamivudine).
Abstract: An azidothymidine (AZT)-resistant virus strain (HIV-1/AZT) (containing the 67 Asp --> Asn, 70 Lys --> Arg, 215 Thr --> Phe and 219 Lys --> Gln mutations into its reverse transcriptase) was grown in the combined presence of 2',3'-dideoxy-3'-thiacytidine (3TC, lamivudine) and the nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (S)-4-isopropoxycarbonyl-6-methoxy-3-(methylthiomethyl)-3,4-dih ydroquinoxaine-2(1H)-thione (quinoxaline HBY 097).

Abstract: Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 is resistant to 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine (AZT) when four amino acid substitutions (D67N, K70R, T215F, and K219Q) are present simultaneously in its reverse transcriptase.
Implication of the tRNA initiation step for human immunodeficiency virus type 1 reverse transcriptase in the mechanism of 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine (AZT) resistance.
Abstract: A pre-steady-state kinetic analysis was used to examine the binding and incorporation of 2'-deoxythymidine 5'-triphosphate (dTTP) and 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine 5'-triphosphate (AZTTP) by wild-type HIV-1 reverse transcriptase and a clinically important AZT-resistant mutant form of the enzyme (D67N, K70R, T215Y, K219Q) utilizing a physiologically relevant RNA 18-mer/RNA 36-mer primer-template substrate.
Phenotypic mechanism of HIV-1 resistance to 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine (AZT): increased polymerization processivity and enhanced sensitivity to pyrophosphate of the mutant viral reverse transcriptase.
Abstract: The D67N/ Abstract: The D67N/K70R/T215F/K219Q mutant showed an increased rate of pyrophosphorolysis (the reverse reaction of DNA synthesis) of chain-terminated DNA; this enhanced pyrophosphorolysis was due to the D67N/K70R mutations.
Abstract: The D67N/K70R/T215F/K219Q mutant showed increased DNA polymerase processivity; this resulted from decreased template/primer dissociation from RT, and was due to the T215F/K219Q mutations.
