Abstract: In the four FPV/r-treated VFs, baseline HIV TAMs combinations and/or PI mutations were detected in one by PG at VF (RT: L210W + T215C; PR: M46I + L76V) and three others by CA alone (RT: L210W + T215Y; RT: M41L; RT: K65R + K70R; PR: I47V); all four had study drug-associated mutations (CA detecting more HIV-1 resistance mut
Dynamics of HIV-1 quasispecies during antiviral treatment dissected using ultra-deep pyrosequencing.
Introduction: We also studied so called T215 reversion mutations (T215A/C/D/E/G/H/I/L/N/S/V).
Result: We also investigated the levels of preexisting T215 reversion mutations (T215A/C/D/E/G/H/I/L/N/S/V) and found that four of five patients had preexisting levels of T215A and/or T215I that ranged from 0.05% to 0.11% (Table 3), whereas we did not detect any of the other 215 reversion mutations.

Transmitted antiretroviral drug resistance among acute and recent HIV infections in North Carolina from 1998 to 2007.
Result: Seven recently infected subjects harbored T215C or T215D revertant mutations, which represent the first back-mutation away from T215Y.
HIV type-1 clade C resistance genotypes in treatment-naive patients and after first virological failure in a large community antiretroviral therapy programme.
Discussion: The two mutations that are likely to reduce susceptibility to NRTIs if transmitted, T215C and M41L, were not seen in either the naive or non-naive groups.
Transmission networks of drug resistance acquired in primary/early stage HIV infection.
Abstract: The transmission of nucleoside analogue mutations and 215 resistant variants (T215C/D/I/F/N/S/Y) declined with clustering (7.9 vs.
Result: As shown, viral variants harbouring mutations to NRTIs, including revertants at codon 215 (T215C/D/I/N/S), thymidine analogue mutations, and M184V, as well as to PIs were less frequent in clustered transmissions.
Minority human immunodeficiency virus type 1 variants in antiretroviral-naive persons with reverse transcriptase codon 215 revertant mutations.
Abstract: T215 revertant mutations such as T215C/D/E/S that evolve from the nucleoside reverse transcriptase (RT) inhibitor mutations T215Y/F have been found in about 3% of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) isolates from newly diagnosed HIV-1-infected persons.
