Abstract Tyrosine-methionine-aspartate-aspartate (YMDD)-motif mutants may emerge and elicit immune clearance during prolonged lamivudine treatment. The aim of this study was to investigate the virological events following development of the original mutants. Twenty-three patients who developed YMDD-motif mutants during the Asian lamivudine trial were included. Serial serum samples from these patients were subjected to sequence analysis to identify new mutants. Site-directed mutagenesis experiments were performed to investigate whether the new mutations were responsible for lamivudine resistance. Of the 23 patients included, 13 harbored either one or a mixture of the two common YMDD-motif mutants (methionine 552-to-isoleucine [M552I] and leucine 528-to-methionine/methionine 552-to-valine [L528M/M552V]) throughout the course, whereas in the remaining 10 patients, distinct mutants became dominant over the original mutants to cause continuing chronic hepatitis. Of them, 3 developed an alanine 529-to-threonine (A529T) mutant, 6 developed a leucine 528-to-methionine/methionine 552-to-isoleucine (L528M/M552I) mutant, and 1 developed these two mutants sequentially. Site-directed mutagenesis experiments confirmed that the aforementioned mutations were responsible for the resistance to lamivudine in vitro. The nucleotide substitution in the A529T mutant concomitantly generated a stop codon at the surface gene, leading to impaired secretion of HBsAg. Strikingly, the replication of this mutant was lamivudine dependent. These results suggested that distinct lamivudine-resistant mutants could emerge and replace the original YMDD-motif mutants as the cause of continuing chronic hepatitis during prolonged lamivudine therapy.

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
