Abstract Genetic variability of hepatitis B virus (HBV) in the C gene and its association with the different stages of chronic liver disease has been studied inadequately with controversial results. The objectives of the current study were to determine the frequency of core promoter and precore mutations in chronic hepatitis B in Tunisia and to evaluate their impact on viral replication and disease progression. Sequencing was performed in upstream regulatory sequence (URS), pre-core (PreC) and basal core promoter (BCP) regions for 123 chronic infected patients by HBV genotype D at different status of disease. Mutations were detected in 98.4% of cases, affecting URS, BCP and Pre-C in 95.1%, 95.9% and 87.8% respectively. Multi-mutations increased significantly from asymptomatic carrier to advanced liver disease status. G1896A (74.8%), G1764A/T/C (71.5%), G1899A (54.4%) and T1678C (52%) were the most common. Special attention should be paid to A1703T, T1678C/G-A1703T, and A1652G-A1679G mutations probably specific of Tunisians sequences; they were observed in 40.6%, 41.5% and 30.1% respectively. A1679G/C, T1753C/G/A, A1762T/G and A1762T-G1764A were more prevalent in older patients. High DNA levels were associated with G1899A or G1764T/C-C1766G-C1799G and advanced liver disease with mutations at positions 1762, 1764 and/or 1899 alone or in double or triple mutations. It was also shown that substitutions at nucleotides 1762, 1764 and 1899 have an impact on the disease progression. It is the first report for specific mutations in the URS region for genotype D. It should be completed by studying eventual correlation with clinical progression and the response to treatment.

Mutation Information
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.
