Abstract: A major drug resistant mutation in RT gene, L74I (NRTI), and two such mutations, K101E and G190A (NNRTI), were obse
Result: A salient observation of the study is the presence of the L74I mutation, which confers high level of resistance to didanosine, in a drug naive patient (AIIMSU63).
Table: L74I
Discussion: Two ART naive patients, AIIMSU63 and AIIMSPD5 harbored L74I (conferring high level of resistance to didanosine; NNRTI inhibitor) and V106A (conferring high level of resistance to nevirapine; NNRTI inhibitors) mutations respectively.
Geographic and temporal trends in the molecular epidemiology and genetic mechanisms of transmitted HIV-1 drug resistance: an individual-patient- and sequence-level meta-analysis.
Result: L74I (4.4%; eight of 184), V75M (8.2%; 15 of 184), and M184I (3.8%; seven of 184) accounted for a higher proportion of the NRTI SDRMs in SSEA than in other regions (<2% for each mutation in each of the other regions; p < 0.001).
HIV-1 diversity in an antiretroviral treatment naive cohort from Bushbuckridge, Mpumalanga Province, South Africa.
Introduction: Secondary and tertiary mutations (G140A/C/S, L74I and E138A/K/T) further enhance the resistance.

Method: Dolutegravir resistance categories were as follows: (i) no resistance, absence of Q148H/R/K; (ii) low-level resistance, Q148H/R/K in the absence of G140S/A/C, L74I and E138A/K/T; (iii) intermediate-level resistance, Q148H/R/K with one of the mutations G140S/A/C, L74I or E138A/K/T; and (iv) high-level resistance, Q148H/R/K with two or three of the mutations G140S/A/C, L74I and E138A/K/T.
Assessing transmissibility of HIV-1 drug resistance mutations from treated and from drug-naive individuals.
Result: Mutations M41L (above) and L74I/V (below) were outside the CI for Portugal but not for DE, and T69N (above) and K65R (below) were outside the CI for DE but not for Portugal.
Discussion: We show here that D30N, N88D/S and L90 M also have high transmissibility and that other SDRMs have higher (M41L, T215Rev and K219E/N/Q/R for NRTIs and K101E/P for the NNRTIs) or lower transmissibility (K70E/R, L74I/V, and T215Y/F f

Discussion: The occurrences of polymorphic minor INI-accessory mutations (L74I, T125A, V165I, T206S, L234I and V201I) are similar to previous HIV-1C isolates from South Africa.
