Hi everybody.
I'm just aware of some. Like these ones in that study published in the official journal of AIDS : ( sorry I can't link the page because I don't have enough post in eupedia forum ) the title is :
A nonsense mutation (428G->A) in the fucosyltransferase FUT2 gene affects the progression of HIV-1 infection
just google it you ll find the link.
According to that study, to have FUT2 mutation and / or CCR5 deletion, both tested by 23andme, seems to increase the chance to be "long term non-progressor". Among "long term non-progressor", the mutation in FUT2 is overrepresented even if they are CCR5 normal type.
Mitochondrial DNA is important also as I have read on eupedia and by the link given in the thread.
I am myself pretty satisfied to be haplogroup K and AA on FUT2 which are both related to slow HIV progression.
Do you know other mutations or traits which are reported so far and that gives potential resistance ?
