Abstract: Our results show that the primary mutation
V82A causes the known effect of collapsing the S1/S1' pockets that ultimately lead to the reduced inhibitory effect of TL-3.
Abstract: We have also solved crystal structures of two multi-drug resistant mutant HIV
PRs in complex with TL-3, from subtype B (Bmut) carrying the primary mutations
V82A and
L90M, and from subtype F (Fmut) carrying the primary mutation
V82A plus the secondary mutation
M36I, at 1.75 A and 2.8 A resolution, respectively.
