Analysis of Nevirapine Resistance Mutations in Cloned HIV Type 1 Variants from HIV-Infected Amplification-Sequencing Method (AmpliSeq) William Ian Towler, Jessica D. Church, James R. Eshleman, Mary Glenn Fowler, Laura A. Guay, J. Brooks Jackson, and Susan H. Eshleman Abstract
We analyzed the genetic linkage of nevirapine (NVP) resistance mutations and the genetic complexity of HIV-1 variants in Ugandan infants who were HIV infected despite single dose (SD) prophylaxis. Plasma sampleswere obtained from six HIV-infected infants who had two or more NVP resistance mutations detected by pop-ulation sequencing (ViroSeq). ViroSeq PCR products were cloned and transformed, and a single-step amplifi-cation-sequencing reaction (AmpliSeq) was used to analyze NVP resistance mutations in cloned HIV-1 vari-ants directly from bacterial colonies. Fifty clones were analyzed for each infant sample. This analysis revealednumerous NVP resistance mutations not detected by population sequencing, genetically linked NVP resistancemutations, and a high degree of genetic complexity at codons that influence NVP susceptibility.

HIV-1 genotyping was performed using the ViroSeq HIV Genotyping System (ViroSeq, Celera Diagnos- tics, Alameda, CA) using 0.1 ml of infant plasma. The HIV- 1 subtype of each sample was determined by phylogeneticanalysis of pol region sequences.
DNA cloning was accomplished as follows. Using the ViroSeq system, RNA was extracted from plasma, and the HIV-1 RNA was reverse transcribed to generate comple- K103N ϩ Y188C

Pol region DNA (encoding the 3Ј portion of HIV-1 gag, HIV-1 protease, and the 5Ј portion of HIV-1 re- verse transcriptase) was amplified using Research Use Only PCR mix provided by Celera Diagnosics, which was identi- cal to the PCR mix included in the ViroSeq system, except that dTTP was substituted for dUTP. Amplification was per- V106A ϩ Y188C

AmpliSeq uses commercially available DNA sequencing reagents supplemented with additional dNTPs for the com- bined amplification/sequencing reaction. Two oligonu- cleotides are added to each reaction, with one in molar ex- cess. During the initial reaction cycles, the low-concentration oligonucleotide and the dNTPs are incorporated into ampli- fication products. In later reaction cycles, DNA sequencing K103R ؉ G190Ab
