Abstract

See full text

A method for detecting low frequency occurrence of one or more HIV sequence variants associated with reverse transcriptase and/or protease is described that comprises the steps of: (a) generating a cDNA species from a plurality of RNA molecules in an HIV sample population; (b) amplifying a plurality of first amplicons from the cDNA species, wherein each first amplicon is amplified with a pair of nucleic acid primers capable of generating amplicons from an HIV clade comprising clade A, clade B, clade C, clade D, clade F, and clade G; (c) clonally amplifying the amplified copies of the first amplicons to produce a plurality of second amplicons; (d) determining a nucleic acid sequence composition of the second amplicons; and (e) detecting one or more sequence variants in the nucleic acid sequence composition of the second amplicons.
