Abstract: In this study,
HIV-1 infected patients (n = 120) from North India revealed
Ser46Phe (20%) and
Ser61Arg (2%) mutations in the
Tat variants with a strong interaction toward TAR leading to enhanced transactivation activities.
Abstract: Molecular dynamics simulation data verified that the variants with this mutation had a higher binding affinity for TAR than both the wild-type
Tat and other variants that lacked
Ser46Phe and
Ser61Arg.
Result: In this study, CD4 counts were follow-up for 6 months for
HIV-1 infected patients (n = 15) which included: group 1 was consisted of
HIV-1 infected patients (n = 9) lacking
