Understanding the Basis of Resistance in the Irksome Lys103Asn HIV-1 Reverse Transcriptase Mutant Through Targeted Molecular Dynamics Simulations
Overview
Affiliations
Results of targeted molecular dynamics simulations confirm the existence of a higher energy barrier for creation of the pocket where non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors bind in the K103N mutant enzyme relative to wild-type.
