Abstract: Using dual-priming oligonucleotide primer technology, an assay that can detect mutations at codons 180 (L528M) and 204 (YVDD, YIDD, and YSDD) by a single-step multiplex PCR was developed.

Abstract: Genotypic analysis showed M552V, M552I and L528M mutations.
Identification of rare polymerase variants of hepatitis B virus using a two-stage PCR with peptide nucleic acid clamping.
Abstract: This variant did not have the L528M mutation, which is often associated with YVDD variants, and lamivudine therapy in this patient suppressed HBV replication.
Efficacy of combined lamivudine and adefovir dipivoxil treatment for severe HBV graft reinfection after living donor liver transplantation.
Abstract: Hepatitis B virus sequence analysis revealed several mutations in the polymerase gene (L528M, M552I, M552V) as well as in the surface gene region encoding the immunogenic major hydrophilic loop of the small surface protein (G130N, M133T, D144G).
Subclones of drug-resistant hepatitis B virus mutants and the outcome of breakthrough hepatitis in patients treated with lamivudine.
Abstract: Major HBV mutants during breakthrough hepatitis were those with M552I in the YMDD motif of viral DNA polymerase/reverse transcriptase in 7 patients (54%), M552I/L528M in 4 patients (31%) and M552V/L528M in 2 patients (15%).
Evolution of hepatitis B virus sequence from a liver transplant recipient with rapid breakthrough despite hepatitis B immune globulin prophylaxis and lamivudine therapy.
1Abstract: These mutations caused L426I/L526M/M550I triple mutation (equivalent to L428I/L528M/M552I in previous reports) in the polymerase, and D144E mutation in the ""a"" determinant of HBsAg."
[Quasispecies and mutation of hepatitis B virus polymerase gene in lamivudine- treated patients].
Abstract: By sequencing the predominant clones, there were 2 patients with M550V/L528M mutation, 3 patients with M550I mutation and 1 patient with wild type after lamivudine therapy.

Abstract: METHODS: Sequential serum samples from 10 consecutive patients with lamivudine resistance after liver transplantation were analyzed for viral genotype, precore mutants, and viral polymerase gene mutants (L528M, M552V, M552I) using restriction fragment length polymorphism.

Abstract: The MCC-478 EC(50)s were 0.027 microM for wild-type HBV (about 20 times more efficient than lamivudine), 2.6 microM for M552I, 3.3 microM for M552V, and 2.0 microM for L528M/M552V.
Abstract: The emergence of resistant hepatitis B virus (HBV) with the L528M mutation and/or the M552V and M552I mutations in the polymerase gene following long-term lamivudine treatment is becoming an important clinical problem.
Abstract: The susceptibility of wild-type HBV and lamivudine-resistant mutants (M552I, M552V, and L528M/M552V) to MCC-478 was examined by transient tr
Detection of hepatitis B virus resistance to antivirals.
Abstract: Recent reports on larger series of patients pointed that other mutations residing outside of the C domain but mainly in the B domain of the viral polymerase (L528M) could be associated with these mutations in the YMDD motif.
Abstract: The lamivudine resistant mutants, selected in vivo, can be classified in 2 main groups: group I with a double mutation L528M and M552V, and group II with a single mutation M5521.
