HBV mutation literature information.


  Hepatitis B virus (HBV) mutations associated with resistance to lamivudine in patients coinfected with HBV and human immunodeficiency virus.
 PMID: 10449493       1999       Journal of clinical microbiology
Abstract: In seven of these nine patients, Met(550), belonging to the highly conserved YMDD motif, was mutated to Val and was associated with a substitution of Met for Leu(526) in each case.
Abstract: In the two remaining patients, we found a Met(550)-to-Ile change that was associated in only one case with a Leu(526)-to-Met mutation.


  Analysis of the precore and core promoter DNA sequence in liver tissues from patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.
 PMID: 10485623       1999       Journal of Korean medical science
Abstract: Among 20 tumorous and nontumorous tissues, HBV with a C to T mutation at nucleotide (nt) 1846 was detected in six and eight, respectively, and was associated with the virus carrying a mutation (1896 or 1899) except in two tumorous tissues.


  Novel patterns of amino acid mutations in the hepatitis B virus polymerase in association with resistance to lamivudine therapy in japanese patients with chronic hepatitis B.
 PMID: 10502255       1999       Journal of medical virology
Abstract: A substitution of methionine for leucine at residue 526 (L526M) has also been identified.
Abstract: In four patients, a substitution of valine or isoleucine for leucine at residue 426, which has not been reported previously, emerged in combination with M550I.
Abstract: In the remaining patient, an alteration of leucine to methionine at residue 428 co-occurred with M550V.
Abstract: Lamivudine resistance has been attributed mainly to a substitution of isoleucine or valine for methionine at residue 550 (M550I or M550V) in the catalytic site of the virus polymerase.


  Diversity of core promoter mutations in immune clearance phase of chronic HBV infection.
 PMID: 10514111       1999       European journal of gastroenterology & hepatology
Abstract: While mutations at nucleotide 1762 (A-->T) and 1764(G-->A) were not found in ASC, mutations at the same positions were found in all the cases of CH group (40 clones) (P=0.003).


  T1762/A1764 variants of the basal core promoter of hepatitis B virus; serological and clinical correlations in Chinese patients.
 PMID: 10533799       1999       Liver
Abstract: BACKGROUND: A double variant in the basal core promoter, converting nucleotide 1762 from A to T (T1762) and nucleotide 1764 from G to A (A[764), has been described in patients with chronic hepatitis B infection.


  Hepatitis B virus core promoter mutations in children with multiple anti-HBe/HBeAg reactivations result in enhanced promoter activity.
 PMID: 10534721       1999       Journal of medical virology
Abstract: In both patients, rare mutations were found in the BCP at nucleotides 1764(G-->T)/1766(C-->G) and 1766(C-->T)/1768(T-->A) in case 1 and 2, respectively.


  Recombinant HBsAg of the Wild-Type and the G145R Escape Mutant, included in the New Multivalent Vaccine against Hepatitis B Virus, Dramatically Differ in their Effects on Leukocytes from Healthy Donors In Vitro.
 PMID: 10534722       1999       Journal of medical virology
Abstract: This A-to-T point mutation at nucleotide 540 resulted in a glutamine-to-leucine substitution at amino acid residue 129 (129L).


  Age at time of hepatitis Be antibody seroconversion in childhood chronic hepatitis B infection and mutant viral strain detection rates.
 PMID: 10554127       1999       Journal of pediatric gastroenterology and nutrition
Abstract: Specifically, a mutant strain showing a G-to-A substitution at nucleotide 83 in the pre-C region, or a mutant strain showing an A-to-T substitution at nucleotide 1762 and a G-to-A substitution at nucleotide 1764, was detected in only two of eight cases (25%) from the HBeAb-positive carriers with documented seroconversion before age 6.


  Subtype-independent immature secretion and subtype-dependent replication deficiency of a highly frequent, naturally occurring mutation of human hepatitis B virus core antigen.
 PMID: 10559327       1999       Journal of virology
Abstract: Despite its immature secretion phenotype, the adr variant I97L replicates as well as its parental adr wild-type I97I, supporting the conclusion that the extracellular phenotype of immature secretion is not a consequence of the intracellular HBV DNA replication defect.
Abstract: Recently, a phenylalanine (F)-to-leucine (L) mutation at this position (mutant F97L) in HBV surface antigen subtype ayw has been shown to result in an immature secretion phenotype, which is characterized by the nonselective export of an excessive amount of virions containing minus-strand, single-stranded HBV DNA.
Abstract: We report here that the immature secretion phenotype indeed can be found in an HBV strain (subtype adr) prevalent in Asia, changing from an isoleucine (I) to a leucine (mutant I97L).
Abstract: While subt


  Hepatitis B virus maturation is affected by the incorporation of core proteins having a C-terminal substitution of arginine or lysine stretches.
 PMID: 10573159       1999       The Journal of general virology
Abstract: Additionally, triple-plasmid transfection experiments showed that nucleocapsids containing various amounts of C144Arg and wild-type core proteins exhibited a bias in selecting a shorter pregenome for encapsidation and DNA replication.
Abstract: In this study, two hepatitis B virus (HBV) core mutants (C144Arg and C144Lys) in which the C-terminal SPRRR (Ser-Pro-Arg-Arg-Arg) motif was replaced by a stretch of arginine or lysine residues were generated to test their role in pregenome encapsidation and virus maturation.
Abstract: Nucleocapsids formed by C144Arg and C144Lys, however, lost the endogenous polymerase activity to repair HBV DNA.
