Abstract
Methods and compositions related to HIV are disclosed. Using the methods of the present invention, nucleoside analogs may be screened for the ability to be incorporated by reverse transcriptase of human immunodeficiency virus ('HIV RT') and cause incorrect base pairing. Progressive mutation of the virus by such nucleoside analogs renders it non-viable.
