Abstract: In an effort to investigate the basis for this discrepancy, we have examined whether the increases in misinsertion fidelity observed for E89G and M184V RTs are accompanied by an increase in mispair extension fidelity.
Abstract: The relative efficiencies with which the wild type, E89G, M184V and M184V/E89G HIV-1 RTs extend model template-primer duplexes containing 3'-OH terminal mismatches were measured.
Abstract: These results suggest that amino acid substitutions that increase the fidelity of dNTP insertion do not necessarily increase misextension fidelity, and that the decreased misextension fidelity may counterbalance the increases in misinsertion fidelity observed for
Analysis of pol gene heterogeneity, viral quasispecies, and drug resistance in individuals infected with group O strains of human immunodeficiency virus type 1.
Abstract: Antiretroviral treatment also selected for specific substitutions, M184V and T215Y in the RT coding region, conferring resistance to 3'-dideoxy-3'-thiacytidine and zidovudine, respectively.
Fast genotypic detection of drug resistance mutations in the HIV-1 reverse transcriptase gene of treatment-naive patients.
Abstract: Mutation K70R (resistance to zidovudine) was found in 8 patients, M41L (resistance to zidovudine) in 5 patients, M184V/I (resistance to ddI/ddC/3TC) in 2 patients, and T215Y/F (resistance to zidovudine) in 4 patients.
Loss of lamivudine resistance in a zidovudine and lamivudine dual-resistant HIV-1 isolate after discontinuation of in vitro lamivudine drug pressure.
Abstract: We examined the in vitro phenotypic and genotypic profiles of an extensively passaged human immunodeficiency virus type 1 clinical isolate which has been selected for lamivudine resistance, with an M184V mutation in a zidovudine-resistant genetic background, and then cultured with zidovudine alone.

Abstract: Both an MT-2 cell-based culture assay and a cell-free virion-associated RT inhibition assay showed that viruses possessing an L74V and/or M184V mutation or a K65R mutation had reduced sensitivity to ddI.
Abstract: Population-based sequencing of plasma virus showed that 12 of 23 (52%) patients developed known ddI resistance mutations: L74V (7 patients), K65R (2 patients), L74V with M184V (3 patients), and L74V with K65R (1 patient).
Kinetics of Archived M184V Mutation in Treatment-Experienced Virally Suppressed HIV-Infected Patients.
Abstract: Second, recombinant HIV, that contained the M184V substitution in RT, could not replicate in the presence of d4T, AZT, Nevirapine, Delavirdine or Saquinavir, using previously described protocols for the generation of drug resistance in vitro.
Abstract: This apparent contradiction is explained by an increase in the fidelity of the HIV RT, conferred by the M184V mutation, on the basis of the following observations.
Abstract: This suggests that increased fidelity of M184V RT may limit variability in the HIV env gene and result in protracted effectiveness of anti-viral immune responsiveness.
Abstract: This was in spite of high-level resistance to this compound and the appearance of the M184
Lamivudine-resistant human immunodeficiency virus type 1 variants (184V) require multiple amino acid changes to become co-resistant to zidovudine in vivo.

Abstract: Exposure of human immunodeficiency virus to the nucleoside analogue lamivudine (3TC) rapidly selects for resistant variants with a valine at codon 184 (M184V) in the catalytic site of reverse transcriptase.
Single-step kinetics of HIV-1 reverse transcriptase mutants responsible for virus resistance to nucleoside inhibitors zidovudine and 3-TC.
Abstract: The affinity of 3-TCTP to the RT-3TC-primer/template complex was not affected by the mutation M184V.
Abstract: Two mutants of HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (RT) associated with high-level resistance of the virus to AZT (RT-AZT: D67N, K70R, T215Y, K219Q, and M41L) or 3-TC (RT-3TC: M184V) were expressed in Escherichia coli and purified.
Nucleotide substitutions within U5 are critical for efficient reverse transcription of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 with a primer binding site complementary to tRNA(His).
Abstract: Finally, sequence analysis of U5 and PBS regions of proviruses from pHXB2(His-AC-GAC) with wild-type RT revealed considerably more nucleotide substitutions than in viruses derived from pHXB2(His-AC-GAC) containing the M184V mutation in RT after extended in vitro culture.
Abstract: The M184V RT mutation was cloned into pHXB2(His-AC-GAC) and pHXB2(His-AC-TGT).
Abstract: The initiation of reverse transcription was delayed in viruses derived from pHXB2(His-AC-TGT) with wild-type RT and M184V RT compared to viruses derived from pHXB2(His-AC-GAC).
Abstract: To further address this possibility, we used a specific mutation in M184V Mutation in Treatment-Experienced Virally Suppressed HIV-Infected Patients.
Abstract: Fidelity differences between M184V and wild-type RT were most marked in extension of A:G (49-fold) and A:C (16-fold) mispairs, with only a marginal (3-fold) decrease in the extension of A:A mispairs.
Abstract: It was of interest to determine the fidelity of RNA-dependent DNA polymerization (RDDP) of M184V RT compared with wild-type because this step occurs first in reverse transcription; errors made during this step may be copied in subsequent polymerization steps.
Abstract: Using an in vitro mispaired primer extension assay, M184V-mutated RT exhibited 3-49-fold decreased frequency of mispair extension compared with wild-type RT.
