Abstract Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is an important etiology in patients undergoing orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) world-wide. Antiviral therapy-related clearance of HCV RNA may occur both in patients with chronic HCV infection and in transplanted patients for HCV-related liver cirrhosis, but the role of the 5'-untranslated region (UTR) of HCV containing the internal ribosome entry site (IRES), which directs the translation of the viral open reading frame has not hitherto been evaluated. We studied the 5'-UTR in an HCV-infected recipient of a liver graft that showed spontaneous clearance of HCV RNA during an acute hepatitis B virus (HBV) superinfection. Sequencing of the 5'-UTR of HCV showed a nucleotide A insertion at position 193 of the IRES.

Note
Basic Characteristics of Mutations
  • Mutation Site: The specific location in a gene or protein sequence where a change occurs.
  • Mutation Level: The level at which a mutation occurs, including the nucleotide or amino acid level.
  • Mutation Type: The nature of the mutation, such as missense mutation, nonsense mutation, synonymous mutation, etc.
  • Gene/Protein/Region: Refers to the specific region of the virus where the mutation occurs. Including viral genes, viral proteins, or a specific viral genome region. If the article does not specifically indicate the relationship between the mutation and its correspondence, the main
  • Gene/Protein/Region studied in the article is marked.
  • Genotype/Subtype: Refers to the viral genotype or subtype where the mutation occurs. If the article does not specifically indicate the relationship between the mutation and its correspondence, the main Genotype/Subtype studied in the article is marked.
  • Viral Reference: Refers to the standard virus strain used to compare and analyze viral sequences.
Functional Impact and Mechanisms
  • Disease: An abnormal physiological state with specific symptoms and signs caused by viral infection.
  • Immune: The article focuses on the study of mutations and immune.
  • Target Gene: Host genes that viral mutations may affect.
Clinical and Epidemiological Correlations
  • Clinical Information: The study is a clinical or epidemiological study and provides basic information about the population.
  • Treatment: The study mentioned a certain treatment method, such as drug resistance caused by mutations. If the study does not specifically indicate the relationship between mutations and their correspondence treatment, the main treatment studied in the article is marked.
  • Location: The source of the research data.
Literature Information
