Our research group is interested in several projects related to HIV-1 pathogenesis and treatment. We study the effect of anti-retroviral drug resistance mutations on HIV-1 replication capacity and resistance. We are interested in determining whether HIV-1 replication capacity as measured in cell culture is clinically related to HIV-1 pathogenesis. We have experience working with HIV-1 in cell culture and have developed several unique cell culture based assays to study HIV-1 recombination, resistance and fitness. We also have biochemistry expertise, studying the polymerization and RNase H activities of HIV-1 reverse transcriptase. We have recently shown that some drug resistant mutants grow better in the presence of the inhibitor compared to its absence. Future work will explore possible mechanisms for how this stimulation by drug occurs with the goal to develop more potent drugs for treatment. We have also shown that protease inhibitor drug resistant mutants give discordant fitness when measured in multiple-cycle versus single-cycle fitness assays, indicating that these assays measure different steps of the virus life-cycle. Future work will explore the reasons for this discrepancy using novel technologies such as nanospectroscopy and Amnis Imagestream flow cytometry. The goal is to determine whether fitness as measured in cell culture can correlate with progression to AIDS in patients.
