Abstract: Furthermore, several mutation patterns, such as cI97L and cP130T showed alterations in the secondary structure and predicted antigenicity of HBV protein.
Occult hepatitis B virus infection in anti-HBs-positive infants born to HBsAg-positive mothers in China.
Abstract: CONCLUSION: Core immune-escape mutations cT12S, cS21T, cT67P, cE113D, and cP130T/Q are significantly higher in decompensated liver disease patients and could influence the severity of liver disease in HBeAg -ve CHB patients.
Abstract: When frequency of core immune escape mutations was compared among CHB and decompensated patients, and c PMID: 20184927

Abstract: In the core protein, cI3L, cL60M, and cI97L were detected in 8 of 10 clones and cP130T was detected in all 10 clones.
Chimeric constructs between two hepatitis B virus genomes confirm transcriptional impact of core promoter mutations and reveal multiple effects of core gene mutations.
Abstract: The missense mutations within the core region, Ile97Leu and Pro130Ile/Thr/Ser, were also remarkable in fulminant hepatitis.
Abstract: The results with the Vietnamese cases of fulminant hepatitis corroborated results of previous studies with respect to the mutations Trp28Stop of precore and Ile97Leu and Pro130Ile/Thr/Ser of core, but not for the mutations within Enh II and precore/core promoter region.
A frequent, naturally occurring mutation (P130T) of human hepatitis B virus core antigen is compensatory for immature secretion phenotype of another frequent variant (I97L).
