a

Site-directed mutations introduced into HIV-1 protease (PR) sequence of HIV-1LAI.

b

Resistance selection was initiated as drug concentration equal to 1× the EC50 for GS-9770 (4 nM); N/A = not applicable; the 5× mutant variant (L24I M46L I64V A77I V82A) persisted until end of study (368 total days of selection), reaching 437-fold the EC50.

c

% infectivity values (mean ± standard deviation) obtained from three independent experiments performed in duplicate.

d

EC50 values (mean ± standard deviation) obtained from four independent experiments performed in triplicate. Mean fold-change values (in parentheses) are calculated from the ratio of EC50 of the site-directed mutant virus over the EC50 of WT HIV-1LAI.

e

ATV = atazanavir; DRV = darunavir; EFV = efavirenz.
