a

Mean IC50 values ± standard errors (± SE) are expressed as μM from at least two separate experiments conducted in duplicate. ND, not determined. Fold increase was calculated by dividing the mutant RT IC50 values by respective wild-type IC50 values and assay modification.

b

Differs statistically from matched wild-type IC50 (P < 0.05) values.
