8Discussion: According to the reports, the ""a"" determinant of OBI patients contains Gly145Arg/Ala/Ile/Trp/Glu (G145R/A/I/W/E), Leu109Arg (L109R), Gly119Arg (G119R), Pro120Thr (P120T), Lys122Ile (K122I), Thr126Asn (T126N), Thr127Arg (T127R), Gln129Asn (Q129N), Thr131Asn (T131N

Abstract: In particular, these mutations were sQ101H/K/R, sS114A/L/T, sT118A/K/M/R/S/V, sP120A/L/Q/S/T, sT/I126A/N/P/S, sM133I/L/T, sC137W/Y, sG145A/R, and sA159G/V.
Result: In particular, mutations were detected in 67/63
Comprehensive Analysis of Clinically Significant Hepatitis B Virus Mutations in Relation to Genotype, Subgenotype and Geographic Region.
Abstract: Immune escape mutations were detected in 10.7% of the sequences, the most common being I/T126S (1.8%), G145R (1.2%), M133T (1.2%), and Q129R (1.0%).
Result: The most common substitutions were I/T126S (1.8%), G145R (1.2%), M133T (1.2%), Q129R (1.0%), I/T126A (0.8%), and P120T (0.8%).
Result: These major mutations were more frequent in genotypes A (P120T, 3.2%), B (I/T126A, 2.8%; Q129R, 2.2%), C (I/T126S, 3.9%; M133T, 1
Occult HBV infection in Chinese blood donors: role of N-glycosylation mutations and amino acid substitutions in S protein transmembrane domains.
Discussion: Mutations T116N, T123N, G130N, and T131N + M133 T have been reported to reduce antigenicity and immunogenicity and rescue virion secretion in N146 mutants.
Molecular characterization of hepatitis B virus in blood donors in Botswana.
Result: P120Q (4.3%), T123A (4.3%), I126S, M133 T (8.7%), F134 L (4.3%) substitutions were found which might potentially affect HBsAg detection.
Impact of immune escape mutations and N-linked glycosylation on the secretion of hepatitis B virus virions and subviral particles: Role of the small envelope protein.
Abstract: An M133T mutation creating a novel glycosylation site at N131could rescue virion secretion of N146Q mutant (loss of original glycosylation site) and immune escape mutants such as G145R.
Abstract: The M133T mutation restored virion secretion through the S protein, and could work in trans.
Introduction: Our previous study revealed that the M133T mutation, which creates a novel glycosylation site at N131 (131NST133), could rescue virion secretion of the N146Q and N146S mutants.
Introduction: Studies were performed to clarify whether the G145R and N146Q mutations impair virion secretion through the L, M, or PMID: 29315352

PloS one
Method: In addition, we looked for Vaccine Escape Mutants (VEMs) and polymorphic mutations outside (Y100C, Q101H, S117N, T118R and P120S) and within the HBsAg immuno-dominant 'a' determinant (I/T126A/N, A128V, Q129H/R, G130N, M133L/T, K141E, S143L, D144A/H/E and G145R).
Substantial variation in the hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) in hepatitis B virus (HBV)-positive patients from South Africa: Reliable detection of HBV by the Elecsys HBsAg II assay.
Abstract: All occult HBV infection-associated Y100C and common diagnostic and vaccine-escape-associated P120T, G145R, K122R, M133L, M133T, Q129H, G130N, and T126S mutations were reliably detected by the assay, which consistently detected the presence of HBsAg in all 179 samples including samples with 11 novel mutations.
A systematic review of hepatitis B virus (HBV) drug and vaccine escape mutations in Africa: A call for urgent action.
Result: Another significant VEM, sG145K/R, was identified in six studies and sM133L/T, associated with VEM, immunoglobulin and diagnostic escape mutation, was identified in seven studies (Fig 2).
