The amino acid substitutions identified in protease of HIV-1DRVRP20 compared to the wild-type HIV-1NL4-3 include L10I/I15V/K20R/L24I/V32I/M36I/M46L/L63P/A71T/V82A/L89M. Numbers in parentheses are fold changes in EC50s for each isolate compared to the EC50s for wild-type HIV-1NL4-3. All assays to determine the EC50s were conducted in duplicate or triplicate, and the data are means ± 1 standard deviation derived from the results of three independent assays.
