Abstract

See full text

Methods and compositions for the efficient and accurate determination of HIV susceptibility to a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) are provided. In certain aspects, the methods involve detecting in a biological sample a nucleic acid encoding an HIV reverse transcriptase that comprises a mutation at codon 188, wherein the presence of the reverse transcriptase-encoding nucleic acid in the biological sample indicates that the HIV has a decreased susceptibility to an NNRTI. In certain embodiments, the HIV also contains one or more secondary mutations in reverse transcriptase. Also provided are methods for selecting a treatment for an HIV patient and methods for determining the selective advantage of a mutation or mutation profile.
