Detection of lamivudine-resistant variants and mutations related to reduced antigenicity of HBsAg in individuals from the cities of Santos and Sao Paulo, Brazil.
Abstract: The mutations detected were as follows: sM133L + sI195T (2.94%), sI195M (2.94%), sP120T (2.94%), sY100S/F (2.94%), sY100C (17.64%), sI/T126P + sQ129P (2.94%), sM198I + sF183C (2.94%) and sS210R (5.88%).

[The panels of serums, containing various subtypes and mutant forms of HBsAg, to evaluate the diagnostics sensitivity of kits oa reagents detecting HBsAg].
Abstract: The testing of reagents kits to detect HBsAg using twi panels containing recombinant and native variants of HBsAg, demonstrated that these kits enable to detect various sero-vatriants of HBsAg (ayw2, adw2, ayw3varA, ayw3varB, adrq-) in concentration 0.1-0.01 IU/l and the so called elusive mutant forms of HBsAg of recombinant and native origin (G145R, Q129R, Q129H, Q129L, T143K, T126N, T126S, D144A, M133L, K141E and P142S).
A multicentre molecular analysis of hepatitis B and blood-borne virus coinfections in Viet Nam.
Figure: Three amino acid substitutions were identified in 7 HBV isolates in blood donors: Pattern 1, T123A, in one isolate; Pattern 2, M133L, in one isolate; Pattern 3, T143M, in five isolates.
Discussion: M133L mutant showed the least significant changes, probably because it is located in less-antigenic first loop, and also because both Met and Leu are non-polar residues with similar bulkiness of their side-chains.
Discussion: Comparison of variants T123A, M133L and T143M with the reference wild-type HBsAg showed different predicted tertiary structures with lesser degree of changes observed in the mainframe helices compared to the loops' structures (Figure 2).
Occult hepatitis B in blood donors in Indonesia: altered antigenicity of the hepatitis B virus surface protein.
Abstract: Seven of the viremic samples had nucleotide substitutions (A521G, A551T, C582T, and A562G) in the S gene, causing amino acid mutations (T123A, M133L, and T143M) in the 'a' determinant of HBsAg that resulted in changes in the predicted antigenicity.
[Analysis on mutation of S gene and P gene of hepatitis B virus in two counties of Sichuan Province].
Abstract: RESULTS: Of 47 serum samples from patients with chronic HBV infection, amino acid mutation in 'a' determinant occurred in 12 samples (25.53%,12/47), correlating with T126A, I126T/S, P127T, T131N, M133L, M133T and T140I; high proportion of mutation clustered in first loop of 'a' determinant (92.86%,13/14), rtV207I mutation in C domain of reverse transcription occured in one sample.

Method: Mutations at 10 S envelope protein positions were considered possible vaccine-escape mutations, including sP120T, sI/T126N/A, sQ129H, sM133L, sK141E, sP142S, sD144A, sG145R, sF158Y, and s PMID: 12167344

Abstract: In contrast, the HBV a determinant HBIg/vaccine escape mutants sP120T, sT123N, sG145R, and sD144E/G145R (that produce rtT128N, Q130P, rtW153Q, and rtG153E respectively) yielded as much virus as wild-type HBV while the sM133L (rtY141S) mutant was replication i

1Abstract: Mutations on the ""a"" determinant (Thr126Ser, Gly145Arg, a double mutant Thr126Ser/Gln129Asn, Met 133Leu and Thr140Ile) were identified in 5 samples while the wild type sequence was found in 2 others."
