Received: 27 June 2012 Accepted: 5 March 2014 Published: 15 MarchConclusions The use of bioinformatics to identify potential Thonzonium (bromide) cancer mutations that confer resistance to antiretroviral drugs allows researchers to develop realistic three-dimensional models that illustrate the atomic interactions between an enzyme and its substrate. In silico, the structural correlation of natural polymorphisms and unusual mutations of drug resistance codons, allows the identification of HIV-1 variants resistant to PIs. The D29V mutation increases the probability of resistance to PIs as it generates unstable complexes at the HIV-1 protease active site. The prevalence PubMed ID:https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25957400 of this mutation in different populations should be further studied, and parallel crystallographic studies are required to confirm our in silico findings. Among mutant PRs-PIs complexes evaluated, TPV and LPV had free energies of binding greater than those obtained with wild-type PRs. Furthermore, the presence of a high rate of L63P, I93L, V77I and I62V polymorphisms among the Mexican population is similar to that observed in patients that underwent antiretroviral treatments in other American and western European countries. These data reinforced the knowledge regarding the molecular epidemiology of the HIV-1 subtype B in Mexico through the presence of HIV polymorphisms.
