Result: The point-mutations on the S gene that owned the rates of >30% of the population were: S53L (37.7%), A184V/G (39.3%), and S210K/N/R/S (39.3%); from 15 to <30% were L21S (29.1%), G44E/V (18.6%), I126T/N/S (21.1%), and M198I/M (18.2%); and from 5 to <15% were V14A/G/Q (10.1%), N40S/K (6.9%), T47A/E/V/K (9.3%), P/L49R/H (5.7%), P62Q/L (9.7%), C76Y/T/W (10.5%), Y100C/F
Nearly half of Ultrio plus NAT non-discriminated reactive blood donors were identified as occult HBV infection in South China.
Abstract: Most OBI strains were wild-type HBV, but some substitutions V168A, S174 N, V177A, Q129R/L/H, G145A/R in S region of genotype B (OBIB) and T47K/V/A, P49H/L, Q101R/H/K, S174 N, L175S, V177A, T118 M/R/K, G145R/A/K/E, R160K/N in S region of genotype C (OBIC) strains were identified in high frequency.

Effects of amino acid substitutions in hepatitis B virus surface protein on virion secretion, antigenicity, HBsAg and viral DNA.
Abstract: Some mutations (e.g., sE2G, sL21S, sR24K, sT47A/K, sC69stop (sC69*), sL95W, sL98V, and sG145R) negatively correlated with serum HBsAg levels.
Discussion: In this study, we found that 12 samples with HBsAg level < 1000 IU/ml with median HBV DNA level 6.77 log10 IU/ml and 75.00% (9/12) of their s
Molecular evolution of hepatitis B vaccine escape variants in China, during 2000-2016.
Abstract: Four sites (A5T/S, L21S, T/A126S and T/N131I/A) and 13 sites (N3S, T5A, G10Q/R/E, L21S, T47K/A/V, L9
Abstract: More importantly, N3S, L21S, T47K, L98V, I/S126T and L213I mutations were detected in 1 (2.5%), 1 (2.5%), 1 (2.5%), 3 (7.5%), 1 (2.5%), 1 (2.5%) genotype C HBV infected Chinese younger with neonatal HBV vaccination, respectively.
Amino acid similarities and divergences in the small surface proteins of genotype C hepatitis B viruses between nucleos(t)ide analogue-naive and lamivudine-treated patients with chronic hepatitis B.
Abstract: With little influence on immune escape-associated mutation frequencies within 'a' determinant, LMV-monotherapy significantly induced classical LMVr-associated mirror changes sE164D/rtV173L, sI195M/rtM204V and sW196L/S/rtM204I, as well as non-classical ones sG44E/rtS53N, sT47K/A/rt
