  Effectiveness of hepatitis B vaccination in babies born to hepatitis B surface antigen-positive mothers in Italy.
 PMID: 11509998       2001       The Journal of infectious diseases
Abstract: One carrier child had a double mutation, with substitution of proline-->serine at codons 120 (P120S) and 127 (P127S) within the a determinant of HBsAg.


  Phylogenetic origin of hepatitis B virus strains with precore C-1858 variant.
 PMID: 11526151       2001       Journal of clinical microbiology
Abstract: The predominant mutation, the precore G-->A-1896 mutation, is restricted by the variability at position 1858 and is rare in strains with cytosine at nucleotide 1858.


  Replication of the wild type and a natural hepatitis B virus nucleocapsid promoter variant is differentially regulated by nuclear hormone receptors in cell culture.
 PMID: 11533157       2001       Journal of virology
Abstract: A natural hepatitis B virus (HBV) variant associated with seroconversion from HBeAg to anti-HBe antibody contains two nucleotide substitutions (A1764T and G1766A) in the proximal nuclear hormone receptor binding site in the nucleocapsid promoter.


  Localization of hepatitis B surface antigen epitopes present on variants and specifically recognised by anti-hepatitis B surface antigen monoclonal antibodies.
 PMID: 11536229       2001       Journal of medical virology
Abstract: In contrast, 2G2G10 reacted strongly with all tested variants including variant with the G145R mutation.
Abstract: Whereas 6H6B6 did not detect mutations T123N, S143L, D144A and G145R, 27E7F10 binding was affected by mutations P120T and G145R.


  Frequency of spontaneous mutations in an avian hepadnavirus infection.
 PMID: 11559794       2001       Journal of virology
Abstract: In this study, we measured the frequency of revertants of a cytopathic strain of the duck hepatitis B virus that bears a single nucleotide substitution in the pre-S envelope protein open reading frame, resulting in the amino acid substitution G133E.
Abstract: Spontaneous revertants were found to be present at frequencies of 1 x 10(-5) to 6 x 10(-5) per G133E genome inoculated.
Abstract: Virus outgrowth was accompanied by a coselection of wild-type and spontaneous revertants during recovery of the ducklings from the acute liver injury caused by death of the G133E-infected cells.


  Reactivation of latently infected hepatitis B virus in a leukemia patient with antibodies to hepatitis B core antigen.
 PMID: 11578069       2001       Journal of gastroenterology
Abstract: Mutation-specific assay based on competitive polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and sequencing analyses revealed the predominant reactivation of an HBV strain with missence mutation (point mutation G-to-A at nucleotide 1896) in the precore regions, as well as point mutations in the core promoter regions.


  Factors associated with hepatitis B virus DNA breakthrough in patients receiving prolonged lamivudine therapy.
 PMID: 11584376       2001       Hepatology (Baltimore, Md.)
Abstract: Patients with HBV DNA breakthroughs had higher percentages of YMDD variants without the presence of wild-type YMDD compared with patients without HBV DNA breakthrough (25.6% vs. 9%, P =.007 for single M552I variant; 20.9% vs. 8.1%, P =.026 for single M552V variant; 30.2% vs. 9.9%, P =.004 for M552I/M552V variants). Patients with HBV DNA levels of more than 10(3) copies/mL after 6 months of lamivudine therapy had a 63.2% chance of subsequently developing YMDD variants.
Abstract: There was no increase in the rate of development of YMDD variants or L528M mutation in patients receiving lamivudine 25 mg daily or famciclovir 500 mg 3 times a day before being given lamivudine


  Hepatitis B virus harboring nucleotide deletions in the core promoter region and genotype B correlate with low viral replication activity in anti-HBe positive carriers.
 PMID: 11595588       2001       Journal of clinical virology
Abstract: RESULTS: Various mutations were detected including C to T point mutation at nt 1653, A to T and G to A contiguous point mutations at nt 1762 and 1764 in the core promoter region, and G to A point mutation at nt 1896 in the precore region, but no common mutations were detected that were directly related to the virus titer from earlier reported mutations.


  Molecular analysis of hepatitis B virus genomes isolated from black African patients with fulminant hepatitis B.
 PMID: 11596083       2001       Journal of medical virology
Abstract: G1896A was, however, present in the one genotype D isolate.
Abstract: A relatively large number of mutations were present in the middle region of the core gene in those isolates without G1896A or A1762T, G1764A mutations, although the pattern was not consistent with those in published studies.
Abstract: The mutation most often reported in patients with fulminant hepatitis B, the G1896A precore stop-codon substitution, was, as expected, not present in the genotype A isolates with the exception of one in which it was accompanied by a compensatory C1858T substitution.
Abstract: The other mutation commonly found in patie


  Residual hepatitis B virus particles in liver transplant recipients receiving lamivudine: PCR quantitation of HBV DNA and ELISA of preS1 antigen.
 PMID: 11596084       2001       Journal of medical virology
Abstract: Among the three patients who did not respond to lamivudine, one had pol mutations (L450P and S550C) that had not been described previously, in addition to the common mutations within the YMDD locus and B domain.
