Abstract: ATP-mediated removal of carbovir as well as small increases in the inhibitory capacity of carbovir appear to contribute to the resistance of mutants with the
K65R mutation and the mutants with the
K65R and
M184V mutations to abacavir.
Abstract: Finally, both the HIV-1 K65R mutant and, more notably, the HIV-1
K65R+
M184V double mutant showed reduced replication capacities and reduced
RT processivities in vitro, consistent with a potential fitness defect in vivo and the low p
