Abstract: Combined genotypic and phenotypic analyses of clinical isolates revealed the presence of moderate levels of phenotypic resistance (between 4- and 50-fold) to 3TC in a subset of isolates that did not harbor the M184V mutation.
Abstract: We describe a new human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) mutational pattern associated with phenotypic resistance to lamivudine (3TC) in the absence of the characteristic replacement of methionine by valine at position 184 (M184V) of reverse transcriptase.

Abstract: Oral administration of 2'-deoxy-3'-oxa-4'-thiocytidine (BCH-10652), a nucleoside analog structurally similar to lamivudine (3TC), caused dose-dependent inhibition of viral replication in SCID-hu Thy/Liv mice infected with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 NL4-3 and with an NL4-3 clone containing the M184V mutation in reverse transcriptase that confers resistance to 3TC.
Prevalence of HIV-1 resistant to antiretroviral drugs in 81 individuals newly infected by sexual contact or injecting drug use. Investigators of the Quebec Primary Infection Study.
Abstract: The PI mutations, L101, V82A, and L90M, were found in 10.5, 3 and 4% of cases, respectively; whereas for RT, primary mutations at positions T215Y (zidovudine), M184V (lamivudine), T69D/A (zalcitabine), and K103N (multi-NNRTI) were present in 8, 5, 4, and 4% of subjects, respectively.
HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (RT) genotype and susceptibility to RT inhibitors during abacavir monotherapy and combination therapy.
Abstract: At the latest time point on abacavir monotherapy (range, weeks 6-48), 21 out of 43 subjects harboured virus with resistance conferring mutations including single, double and triple combinations of K65R, L74V, Y115F and M184V.
Abstract: At week 48, 16 out of 46 genotypes were obtained; one of these was wild-type; 15 contained M184V either alone, in combination with K65R and/or L74V and/or Y115F or with thymidine analogue-associated mutations.
Abstract: The most common mutational pattern was L74V + M184V (11/21 cases).

Abstract: A total of 51% of subjects showed new mutations at any of codons K65R, L74V, and M184V after abacavir monotherapy, compared with 11% who received zidovudine/abacavir.
Abstract: Abacavir alone in vitro selected for mutations at HIV RT codons K65R, L74V, Y115F, and M184V.
Abstract: Abacavir therapy in vivo resulted in large decreases in HIV load (>1 log), even in 1 subject who had the M184V mutation at baseline.
Abstract: However, abacavir combined with zidovudine selected against virus with the M184V mutation.
Kinetics of Archived M184V Mutation in Treatment-Experienced Virally Suppressed HIV-Infected Patients.
Abstract: Pyrophosphorolysis on 3TC-terminated primer strands was not detectable with M184V-containing, as opposed to wild-type, RT, and rescue of AZT-terminated DNA synthesis was significantly decreased with the former enzyme.
Abstract: The present study demonstrates that the M184V mutation, which confers high-level resistance to 3TC, can severely compromise the removal of chain-terminating nucleotides.
Abstract: These results are consistent with tissue culture and clinical data showing sustained antiviral effects of AZT in the context of viruses that contain the M184V mutation in the RT-encoding gene.

Abstract: Mutated recombinant molecular clone HXB2D-D67G was further selected with (+)dOTFC, and three of six clones sequenced contained both the D67G and M184V mutations, while the other three of the six clones contained only the D67G mutation.
Abstract: Studies with mutated recombinant HXB2D virus confirmed the importance of the M184V mutation in conferring resistance to (-)dOTFC in MT-4 cells, although no difference in sensitivity was observed in primary cells.

Abstract: The dOTFC-resistant variants that were selected were 10-fold less sensitive than wild-type virus, and cloning and sequencing of the complete reverse transcriptase (RT)-coding region identified the mutation M184V.

Abstract: This difference was particularly striking for patients with the baseline M184V mutation and whose treatment was modified by the addition of lamivudine.

Abstract: For the 3TC-resistant Met184-->Val RT mutant an almost wild-type level of overall mutation frequency was observed, while the foscarnet-resistant RTs harbouring the Glu89-->Gly mutation showed only a twofold decrease in mutation frequency.
Abstract: We found that the reported higher fidelity of nucleotide incorporation by the Met184-->Val and Glu89-->Gly mutant reverse transcriptases (RTs) was not reflected in a substantial increase in the overall fidelity for these RT mutants.
Specific recognition of lamivudine-resistant HIV-1 by cytotoxic T lymphocytes.
Abstract: Furthermore, this demonstrates that the immune system can generate new CTL specificities even in patients with advanced disease, as the M184V HIV variants emerges only after drug treatment.
Abstract: OBJECTIVE: The reverse transcriptase (RT) M184V mutation within the HLA-A2-restricted HIV-1 cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) epitope VL9 (VIYQYMDDL; RT 179-187) not only induces drug escape against lamivudine but also abolished recognition by a CTL clone derived from a long-term non-progressor.
Abstract: To test whether the variant VL9 epitope containing the M184V mutation represents a new CTL epitope, we studied recognition of this epitope in a cohort of HLA-A2-positive HIV-1-infected patients.
