HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) which causes AIDS(Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome)is one of the most threating viruses today. | |||
The high turnover of the virus leads to the fast development of drug resistance. The phenotypic characterization, enzyme kinetics and X-ray structural analysis of recombinant viruses offers a way to get a better understanding of the drug resistance. The knowledge we gain through that kind of experiments could help in the future to develop new drugs for HIV-positive patients. | |||
