HCV Mutation Detail Information

Virus Mutation HCV Mutation A30K


Basic Characteristics of Mutations
Mutation Site A30K
Mutation Site Sentence Due to the overlapping incidence of A30K, 96% of GT3b isolates had NS5A RASs combination A30K + L31M, which confers high levels of resistance to most NS5A inhibitors.

Abstract Resistance associated substitutions (RASs) can reduce the efficacy of direct-acting antiviral agents (DAAs) targeting hepatitis C virus (HCV) and lead to treatment failure. Clinical data of HCV NS5A RASs prevalence are limited in China and need to be investigated. A total of 878 unique patient samples with different genotypes (GT) (1b: n = 489, 2a: n = 203, 3a: n = 60, 3b: n = 78, 6a: n = 48) were collected from around mainland China by KingMed Laboratory and analyzed for NS5A RASs distribution by Sanger sequencing. Phylogeographic analyses based on NS5A domain 1 sequences indicated circulation of both locally and nationally epidemic strains. Relatively high frequency of Y93H (14.1%) was only detected in GT1b but not in other subtypes. High frequency of L31M was found in both GT2a (95.6%) and GT3b (98.7%) sequences. Due to the overlapping incidence of A30K, 96% of GT3b isolates had NS5A RASs combination A30K + L31M, which confers high levels of resistance to most NS5A inhibitors. No RASs were detected in GT6a strains. Meanwhile, baseline NS5A RASs fingerprints were also evaluated in 185 DAA treatment-naive GT1b patients with next generation sequencing method. Patients presenting with Y93H had statistically higher entropy of HCV NS5A sequences. Taken together, subtype-specific distribution patterns of NS5A RASs were observed. GT1b patients with higher HCV complexity tend to have a greater chance of Y93H presence, while GT3b patients are naturally resistant to current NS5A inhibitors and their treatment may pose a challenge to real-world DAA application.

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.
