Resistance-Associated Mutations in the Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 Subtype C Protease Gene from Treated and Untreated Patients in the United Kingdom

Abstract: This work reports the variability of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) protease from treated and untreated patients infected with HIV-1 subtype C in the United Kingdom. The most common primary mutation observed in treated patients was L90M. D30N, M46I, V82A/F, and I84V were seen rarely. M36I and I93L mutations were observed in nearly all samples from both treated and untreated patients and so cannot be considered as resistance-associated mutations in this subtype.

“…These findings are in accordance with the analyzed data reported in a recent study that compared the genotypic variation between the prevalent clades, B and C, in Israel (12), as well as in other studies reporting genotypic differences between clades only in the secondary resistance mutation patterns (4,6,10,11,12,17,27). A high frequency of ritonavir and nelfinavir resistance mutations was detected, in contrast to the low prevalence found by others in infants (9).…”

“…Other resistance mutations considered of a lesser significance are defined as secondary or minor. Although none of the primary mutations occur as polymorphisms in wild-type HIV-1, several secondary mutations contributing to reduced susceptibility (i.e., M36I and I93L) are found in nearly 100% of subtype C virus from drug-naive patients (5,10). Upon antiretroviral treatment, such differences in baseline polymorphisms among subtypes may result in the evolution of drug resistance along distinct mutational pathways, or in differences in the incidence of these specific pathways (1,4,9,12,16,25,28,29).…”

“…For example, the accessory PI resistance mutations I13V, K20I, M36I and I93L represent the consensus variant in one or more non-subtype B isolates (Rhee et al, 2006a). Furthermore, although both D30N and L90M mutations occur in non-subtype B viruses during nelfinavir therapy, D30N point mutation occurs more commonly in subtype B viruses; while L90M occurs more commonly in subtypes C, F, G and circulating recombinant form-AE (CRF-AE) viruses (Abecasis et al, 2005;Calazans et al, 2005;Cane et al, 2001;Grossman et al, 2004;Sugiura et al, 2002). The increased predilection for a certain subtype to develop L90M may relate to the presence of variants other than L, which is subtype B consensus, at position 89 (Abecasis et al, 2005;Calazans et al, 2005;Gonzalez et al, 2004).…”
