Understanding CMV Drug Resistance Testing
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a DNA virus. Human CMV (HCMV) disease is consistently associated with three groups of patients: congenitally infected infants, patients with AIDS, and transplant recipients. Treatment for CMV infection involves anti-viral drugs - Ganciclovir, Cidofovir, Foscarnet Brincidofovir, etc. These drugs target viral kinase (UL97 gene) or a viral DNA polymerase (UL54 gene) of CMV. Drug resistance results from the evolution of single or multiple mutations that confer various levels of resistance. This...
