The Protein Data Bank (PDB), which is maintained by the Research Collaboratory for Structural Bioinformatics, contains approximately 380 protease, 120 reverse transcriptase (RT), and 20 integrase crystallographic structures. These structures have been pivotal to antiretroviral drug design and understanding HIV drug resistance. They have helped clinicians seeking to understand the structural significance of the many HIV-1 drug resistance mutations.
