This invention relates, in part, to methods and compositions for determining the susceptibility of an HIV to an anti-HIV drug or the replication capacity of an HIV. In certain embodiments, the methods comprise culturing a host cell in the presence of the anti- HIV drug, measuring the activity of the indicator gene in the host cell; and comparing the activity of the indicator gene as measured with a reference activity of the indicator gene. In certain embodiments, the difference between the measured activity of the indicator gene relative to the reference activity correlates with the susceptibility of the HIV to the anti-HIV drug, thereby determining the susceptibility of the HIV to the anti-HIV drug.; In certain embodiments, the difference between the measured activity of the indicator gene relative to the reference activity indicates the replication capacity of the HFV, thereby determining the replication capacity of the HIV. In certain embodiments, the host cell comprises a patient- derived segment and an indicator gene. In certain embodiments, the patient-derived segment comprises a nucleic acid sequence that encodes integrase or RNAse H. |
