Abstract: Most common mutations were M184V (57.1%), Y188C (25.7%), M46I/L (25.7%) and V82A/M (25.7%).
Drug Resistance Mechanism of M46I-Mutation-Induced Saquinavir Resistance in HIV-1 Protease Using Molecular Dynamics Simulation and Binding Energy Calculation.
Result: A decrease in the Asp25-Ile50 distance up to the non-mutated system levels at most of the simulation period indicates an inward (towards core of the active site) curling of the flap in the M46I mutation systems.
Result: A significant decrease in van der Waals contribution in the SQ-MI complex indicates an important role of the M46I mutation in decreasing the interaction between saquinavir and HIV 1 protease binding.
Result: An increased SASA value in the M46I HIV-1 protease structure in comparison to the wild-type protease might be due to the conformational flexibility in the protein.
Result: Based on these facts, our results indicate that WT and SQ-WT showed closed-flap conformation (<1.72 nm), and the

Abstract: Most frequent PI-RAMs were I85V, M46I, I50V and L90M (n=2, 5% each).
Result: Most frequent PI-RAMS were I85V, M46I, I50V and L90M (n=2, 5% each), all of them with modest impact in the activity of currently available PIs.
Transmitted HIV-1 drug resistance in a large international cohort using next-generation sequencing: results from the Strategic Timing of Antiretroviral Treatment (START) study.
Abstract: Using the 2% detection threshold, individual DRMs with the highest prevalence were: PI M46IL (5.5%), RT K103NS (3.5%), RT G190ASE (3.1%), T215ISCDVEN (2.5%), RT M41L (2.2%), RT K219QENR (1.7%) and PI D30N (1.6%).
Result: Estimates of PI TDR are strongly influenced by the M46IL mutation, which was observed in 5.5% of all samples, mostly as low-level v

Result: SDRM in PR were found in 5021 (24.82%) sequences and the more frequent were V82A (9.99%, n = 2021), M46I (9.58%, n = 1938), and I54V (8.50%, n = 1719).
Result: The SDRM with most similar prevalence when comparing both groups were M46I, V82A, L90M and I54V.
Temporal Trends in HIV-1 Mutations Used for the Surveillance of Transmitted Drug Resistance.
Discussion: However, M46I remains an important DRM for lopinavir and atazanavir, although it may continue to occur at minimally elevated levels in the aforementioned subtypes.
Discussion: The potential for M46I/L to occur at low levels in subtype A and CRF01_AE populations without previous PI exposure was recognized at the time the 2009 SDRM list was developed and in several subsequent analyses.
Acquired HIV-1 Protease Conformational Flexibility Associated with Lopinavir Failure May Shape the Outcome of Darunavir Therapy after Antiretroviral Therapy Switch.
Abstract: The HIV-1 protease variants were from clinical isolates with a combination of drug resistance mutations; MUT-1 (M46I, I54V, V82A, and L10F), MUT-2 (M46I, I54V, L76V, V82A, L10F, and L33F), and MUT-3 (M46I, I54V, L76V, V82A, L90M, and F53L).
Introduction: Research has shown that the most reported major HIV-1 PI resistance mutations in patients failing second-line the
Drug resistance mutations in HIV provirus are associated with defective proviral genomes with hypermutation.
Abstract: Certain Apolipoprotein B Editing Complex 3-related DRMs including reverse transcriptase gene mutations M184I, E138K, M230I, G190E and protease gene mutations M46I, D30N were enriched in hypermutated sequences but not in intact sequences or plasma sequences.
