  1. Resistance mutation

    The term resistance mutation is most commonly used to describe point mutation s in virus gene s that allow the virus to become resistant to treatment with a particular antiviral drug . The term is now being seen with more frequency in bacteriology and parasitology . The term resistance mutation first appeared in the management of HIV , which was the first virus in which genome sequencing is routinely used to look for drug resistance. Nomenclature Resistance mutations are conventionally listed as a letter, number and letter. For example, the M184V mutation in the reverse transcriptase gene of HIV confers resistance to the drugs lamivudine and emtricitabine. The letters stand for amino acid s and use the traditional one letter abbreviations. M stands for methionine , and V stands for valine 184 is the number of that amino acid position counting from the amino terminus of the protein. M184V means that the 184th amino acid of the protein is normally methionine, but that a mutation in the gene for that protein produces a form of the protein where that amino acid is substituted by valine instead. The form V184 is sometimes seen this means that the 184th amino acid of that protein is valine, but it gives no information as to whether that is a mutation or the normal state of affairs. The Greek capital letter delta indicates a deletion so M184 would mean that the 184th amino acid is usually methionine, but that this position is now missing. Alternatives are separated by slashes so, M184V I means either M184V, or M184I . References references Category Mutation Pharma stub Genetics stub virus stub ...   more details

Born in Montreal , Quebec , he gained his B.Sc. 1947 and M.Sc. 1948 from the Universit de Montr al and his PhD in 1950 at McGill University . During his time at the Sloan Kettering Institute for Cancer Research he discovered Fujimoto Belleau reaction , which is named after him and George I.

He moved to McGill University in 1971. Belleau worked in the 1960s and 1970s on research programs with Bristol Laboratories, one of which led to the non narcotic analgesic Butorphanol. Butorphanol was found to have over five times the potency of morphine with far fewer side effects. Butorphanol is often used to relieve post surgical pain and in the management of migraine headaches. In the mid 1980s he helped found what became the biotech company BioChem Pharma with colleagues Francesco Bellini and Gervais Dionne . The trio began work on the anti AIDS drug, 2,3 dideoxy 3 thiacytidine 3TC . Just prior to his death in 1989 he laid the foundations for Lamivudine s development, which was a significant advance in the fight against AIDS, and is credited with saving over 2 million lives. ref http www.scienceheroes.com index.php?option com content&view article&id 142 belleau aids&catid 60 belleau aids&Itemid 141 ref In 1981, he was made an Officer of the Order of Canada .

  1. Robert Yarchoan

    Robert Yarchoan born 1950 is a medical researcher who played an important role in the development of the first effective drugs for AIDS . He is the Chief of the HIV and AIDS Malignancy Branch in the National Cancer Institute NCI and also coordinates AIDS and AIDS malignancy research throughout the National Cancer Institute NCI as Director of the Office of HIV and AIDS Malignancy OHAM . Education and career Dr. Yarchoan was raised in Oceanside, New York and graduated from Amherst College in 1971. He subsequently received his M.D. from the University of Pennsylvania and completed an internship and residency in internal medicine at the University of Minnesota and a fellowship in Immunology in the Metabolism Branch of the National Cancer Institute NCI . After completing his training he joined the laboratory of Dr. Samuel Broder . In 1991 he was appointed to be a Section Chief of the Medicine Branch and in 1996 he named chief of the newly formed HIV and AIDS Malignancy Branch. Dr. Yarchoan was also appointed to be the first director of the NCI Office of HIV and AIDS Malignancy OHAM in 2007, which supervises all HIV AIDS and AIDS malignancy research within the NCI. Medical and Research Achievements Along with his colleagues Drs. Samuel Broder and Hiroaki Mitsuya in the National Cancer Institute National Cancer Institute NCI , he co developed the first effective treatments for HIV AIDS. With his colleagues, he conducted the first clinical trials of zidovudine AZT , didanosine ddI , zalcitabine ddC , and lamivudine 3TC . These trials were the first to demonstrate that administration of anti retroviral drugs could reverse the declines in CD4 cells and immunologic impairment caused by human immunodeficiency virus HIV infection. The development of these drugs was a breakthrough in AIDS therapy, and zidovudine, didanosine, and lamivudine remain in widespread use and are included in the World Health Organization s WHO Model List of Essential Medicines Essential Drugs List , whic ...   more details
