  • Publication number: 20070269816
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to the field of nucleic acid diagnostics and the identification of base variation in target nucleic acid sequences. More particularly, the present invention relates to the use of such genotypic characterization of a target population of HIV and the subsequent association, i.e., correlation, of this information to phenotypic interpretation in order to correlate virus mutational profiles with drug resistance. The invention also relates to methods of utilizing the mutational profiles of the invention in drug development, i.e., drug discovery, drug design, drug modification, and therapy, treatment design, clinical management and diagnostic analysis.

  • Publication number: 20030152917
    Abstract: The present invention is drawn to a method of managing HIV chemotherapy of patients who are HIV positive, by transfecting a cell line susceptible to infection by HIV with a sequence from the pol gene of HIV, which sequence encodes at least one desired target enzyme selected from integrase, protease or reverse transcriptase, obtained by isolating viral RNA from a sample of a biological material from a patient and reverse transcribing the desired region of the pol gene, and a HIV-DNA construct that lacks a sequence encoding the desired target enzyme, culturing the transfected cells so as to create a stock of chimeric viruses, assessing the phenotypic sensitivity of the chimeric viruses to at least one inhibitor of the target enzyme encoded by the pol gene of HIV, and assigning a value thereto, constructing a data set containing the value for chimeric virus sensitivity and the corresponding value for a chimeric wild-type strain of HIV, repeating the sensitivity assessment for at least two further inhibitors and
