Discussion: Deletions have been shown to occur most commonly in association with the Q151M complex.
Discussion: Prior studies with HIV-1 subtype B have demonstrated a strong association between K65R and Q151M.
Discussion: Recently the rare association between TAMS and K65R was confirmed in vivo; furthermore when K65R was present with TAMS it was only found on the same genome with T215F/Y and >=2 other TAMS in the presence of Q151M.
Discussion: The combination of K65R and Q151M mutations has also been observed more frequently
Discussion: and may be one of the steps in the mutational pathway towards Q151M mutation.

Abstract: The NRTI mutations were M184V/I (84%), K65R (11%), Q151M (5%), and >or=3 TAMs (3%).

Abstract: V75I is an accessory mutation of the Q151M multidrug resistance complex of HIV-1 RT and is rarely associated with thymidine analogue resistance mutations (TAMs).

Introduction: Q151M causes NRTI multidrug resistance that is often accompanied by several secondary mutations and termed the Q151M complex.
Discussion: K65R is surrounded by other residues associated with NRTI resistance and is commonly associated with M184V or Q151M but is negatively associated with others, such as L74V or most TAMs.
Genotypic HIV type-1 drug resistance among patients with immunological failure to first-line antiretroviral therapy in south India.
Result: Overall, 26% of patients in group A and 51%in group B had developed high-level NRTI cross-resistance in terms of coselecting TAMs, K65R and Q151M (Table 2).
Discussion: Unlike the previous reports, Q151M and its accessory mutations were observed among patients exposed to d4T rather than AZT/didanosine (ddI), which could be a result of bias in the number of patients on failing AZT/ddI-containing regimen.
Treatment outcomes and plasma level of ritonavir-boosted lopinavir monotherapy among HIV-infected patients who had NRTI and NNRTI failure.
Introduction: In addition, AZT and d4T may also select for the more rarely observed Q151M nucleoside analog mutational (NAM) pathway (Q151M, A62V, V75I, F77L and F116Y), which confers broad-spectra NRTI resistance.
Introduction: In addition, three single point mutations, K65R, Q151M and M184V, can confer high-level cross-class resistance to all commercially available NRTIs for HIV-2 infections.
Introduction: Single-genome sequence analysis demonstrates a negative association of K65R with TAMs (
