The researchers looked for three common resistance mutations: the T215Y and related mutations, which confer resistance against Zerit (stavudine, d4T) and Retrovir (zidovudine, AZT) (rarely used in the UK today); K103N, which leads to failure with Sustiva (efavirenz) and Viramune (nevirapine); and L90M
