One reason for the high potency of darunavir is the strong binding of the PI to the main-chains of the protease active-site amino acids. <ref> PMID:14506019 </ref> A second reason might be the ability of the PI to fit closely into the substrate envelope. <ref>PMID:15479840</ref>

Darunavir shows a high genetical barrier to resistance development. In fact studies indicate that the development of resistance needs more specific mutations and develops more slowly. <ref> PMID:15917527 </ref>

Darunavir resistance-associated mutations are V11I, V32I, L33F, I47V, I50V, I54L, I54M, G73S, L76V, I84V and L89V. Those mutations occured in patientes who have a high number of PI resistance-associated mutations. <ref> PMID:17416261 </ref>
