Reverse transcriptase (RT) of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) has low fidelity compared with RTs of other retroviruses and cellular DNA polymerases. We and others have previously found that the fidelity of DNA-dependent DNA polymerization (DDDP) of M184V-mutated HIV-1 RT is significantly higher than that of wild-type RT. Viruses containing the M184V substitution are highly resistant to (-)-2'-dideoxy-3'-thiacytidine (3TC) in vitro and in patients treated with 3TC monotherapy. It was of interest to determine the fidelity of RNA-dependent DNA polymerization (RDDP) of M184V RT compared with wild-type because this step occurs first in reverse transcription; errors made during this step may be copied in subsequent polymerization steps. Using an in vitro mispaired primer extension assay, M184V-mutated RT exhibited 3-49-fold decreased frequency of mispair extension compared with wild-type RT. Fidelity differences between M184V and wild-type RT were most marked in extension of A:G (49-fold) and A:C (16-fold) mispairs, with only a marginal (3-fold) decrease in the extension of A:A mispairs. RT containing a methionine to isoleucine (M184I) mutation showed only slight increases in RDDP fidelity compared with wild-type, ranging from 1.5- to 6-fold increases. Of the three RTs tested, wild-type RT was the most error-prone, with mispair extension frequencies ranging from 6.674 x 10(-1) to 7.454 x10(-2).
