Zusammenfassung:The invention provides polypeptides comprising an amino acid sequence comprising at least one variation from wild-type HCV NS5B polymerase, the at least one variation selected from the group consisting of cysteine, isoleucine, valine, or proline at amino acid position 419; alanine, valine, or asparagine at amino acid position 482; valine, isoleucine, threonine, or serine at amino acid position 486; and isoleucine at amino acid position 494, as the amino acid positions are defined in SEQ ID NO: 1, and having Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) NS5B polymerase activity. Polynucleotides encoding the polypeptide, antibodies, host cells, compositions, and methods for detecting an HCV NS5B polymerase having resistance to a polymerase inhibitor also are provided.
