Genotypic antiretroviral resistance testing for human immunodeficiency virus type 1 integrase inhibitors by use of the TruGene sequencing system.

ABSTRACT: A sequencing assay for detection of mutations conferring resistance to human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) integrase inhibitors raltegravir and elvitegravir was developed using the automated TruGene sequencing system. The assay returned clear sequencing results for samples with >or=500 RNA copies/ml for mutation detection and HIV-1 subtyping across a spectrum of HIV-1 subtypes.
