Drug Resistance Mutations for Surveillance of Transmitted HIV-1 Drug-Resistance: 2009 Update

Abstract: Programs that monitor local, national, and regional levels of transmitted HIV-1 drug resistance inform treatment guidelines and provide feedback on the success of HIV-1 treatment and prevention programs. To accurately compare transmitted drug resistance rates across geographic regions and times, the World Health Organization has recommended the adoption of a consensus genotypic definition of transmitted HIV-1 drug resistance. In January 2007, we outlined criteria for developing a list of mutations for drug-res… Show more

“…The results indicate that as with the adjoining residue 97 80 , changes at residue 98 81 were not well tolerated by FIV, and further change improved viral fitness and infectivity. Interestingly, the two corresponding HIV-1 PR residues, T80 and P81 at the tip of the 80s loop in HIV-1 PR, are conserved, and no drug resistance mutations have been reported at these sites (7,24). Our results suggest that these two conserved residues at the tip of the 80s loop in HIV-1 PR (corresponding to the "90s loop" of FIV PR) may be a valuable target for new drug design.…”

“…In spite of the success of drug development and chemotherapy, however, the continuous selection and emergence of viral variants resistant to these inhibitors and the generation of cross-resistant mutants remain major challenges to drug development. More than 70 mutations in 38 residues of HIV-1 PR have been identified in association with drug resistance to PR inhibitors (7,24). Given this extreme plasticity in PR, new strategies are required for designing a new generation of drugs against these drug-resistant mutants.…”

“…We first aligned all sequences to the reference sequence for the pol gene of HIV subtype-B. We then masked known drug resistant sites, as specified in the Stanford database of HIV drug resistance (Bennett et al 2009). We used the program HyPhy (Pond et al 2005) to identify the type of each sequence and then excluded recombinant sequences and nonsubtype-B sequences.…”
