HBV mutation literature information.


  Prevalence and clinical characterization of patients with acute hepatitis B induced by lamivudine-resistant strains.
 PMID: 20074155       2010       Journal of gastroenterology and hepatology
Abstract: LMV-resistance mutations (L180M, M204I) were detected in a patient with subgenotype C2 who had acute self-limited hepatitis.


  Hepatitis B viral surface mutations in patients with adefovir resistant chronic hepatitis B with A181T/V polymerase mutations.
 PMID: 20119580       2010       Journal of Korean medical science
Introduction: Patients with lamivudine (LMV)-resistant rtM204I/V (+-rtL180M) mutations in the catalytic tyrosine-methionine-aspartate-aspartate (YMDD) motif are less responsive to entecavir (ETV).
Method: These patients developed ADV resistance while undergoing ADV monotherapy as rescue therapy for LMV-resistant HBV (rtM204I/V+-rtL180M).
Discussion: It is possible that these amino acid substitutions were caused by a remaining LMV-resistant mutation, though a rtM204I/V mutation was not detected in sequencing analysis.


  Identification and characterization of clevudine-resistant mutants of hepatitis B virus isolated from chronic hepatitis B patients.
 PMID: 20164224       2010       Journal of virology
Abstract: A quadruple mutant (L129M, V173L, M204I, and H337N) was identified that conferred greater replicative ability and strong resistance to both CLV and lamivudine.
Abstract: In conclusion, the mutation M204I in HBV RT plays a major role in CLV resistance and leads to viral BT during long-term CLV treatment.
Abstract: In vitro phenotypic analysis showed that the mutation M204I was predominantly associated with CLV resistance, whereas L229V was a compensatory mutation for the impaired replication of the M204I mutant.
