چکیده

Methods The mutation frequency of subtype d in untreated persons was obtained from Stanford DR database, http://hivdb. stanford.edu/. Based on the database the wild type PTD sequence was generated. Crystal structure 3LZS showed more similarity based on BLASTp program. The protein structure 3LZS was used as a template to build wild type, major (L10V, N37D, K69Y), minor (K20I, L33I, P39T, Q61N), major+minor mutants of PTD using Modeller9v7. The docking studies of protease inhibitors (atazanavir, darunavir, indinavir, lopinavir, nelfinavir, ritonavir, saquinavir, tipranavir) with the wild type and mutant models were carried using AutoDock 4.2.5.

Resistance mechanism of human immunodeficiency virus type-1 protease to inhibitors: A molecular dynamic approach

Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) protease inhibitors comprise an important class of drugs used in HIV treatments. However, mutations of protease genes accelerated by low fidelity of reverse transcriptase yield drug resistant mutants of reduced affinities for the inhibitors. This problem is considered to be a serious barrier against HIV treatment for the foreseeable future. In this st...

Analysis of drug resistance to HIV-1 protease using fitness function in genetic algorithm

Methods Drug resistance is predicted for all FDA approved HIV-1 protease inhibitors and organic leads synthesized by Dr. Deeb and Dr. Godzari with wild type and mutant strains of subtype B. Initially the structural feature of HIV-1 protease with the inhibitor complex has been anlysed on the basis of “Binding Energies”. Finally the fitness function in Genetic Algorithm was used for optimizing th...

Drug-Resistant HIV-1 RT Gene Mutations in Patients under Treatment with Antiretroviral Drugs (HAART) in Iran

Abstract Background and Objective: Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy (HAART) can effectively prevent the progression of HIV-1 replication and increase life expectancy. There are numerous causes of treatment failure and the leading one is drug resistance. Thus, we aimed to determine the HIV RT gene drug resistance mutations in patients treated with antiretroviral medications. Material...

Drug- Resistance- Associated Mutations and HIV Sub-Type Determination in Drug-Naïve and HIV-Positive Patients under Treatment with Antiretroviral Drugs

Abstract Background and Objective: Resistance to antiretroviral agents is a significant concern in clinical management of HIV-infected individuals. Resistance is the result of mutations that develops in the viral protein targeted by antiretroviral agents. Material and Methods: In this cross-sectional study, the blood samples of 40 HIV-positive patients were collected. Twenty of them were d...

Drug Resistance Profile and Subtyping of HIV-1 RT Gene in Iranian Patients under Treatment

Identification of drug resistant mutations is important in the management of HIV-1 infected patients. The aim of the current study was to evaluate drug resistance profile of RT gene and assess subtype among HIV-1 circulating strains and intensification of physician’s options for the best therapy. HIV-1 RNA of 25 sampleswas extracted from plasma and RT Nested- PCR was performed and the fin...
