Conclusion: Additionally, three nonsynonymous mutations were found in the ORF
S,
S region,
T1387C,
T1640C, and
A1512T; whereas 6 amino acid substitutions (
rtL1
Result: In the coding region of
HBsAg, three amino acid substitutions were identified,
sY100H,
sV184A and
sK141N in samples 001, 024 and 038, respectively (Figure 3); these changes correspond to the mutations
T1387C,
T1640C and
A1512T (Table 4).
