Virus Mutation HDV Mutation A578G


Basic Characteristics of Mutations
Mutation Site A578G
Mutation Site Sentence An additional mutation was identified at position 578 (A-->G), which reestablishes the canonical base pair GC with the mutated 1014 when the genome adopts the "rod-like" conformation.

Abstract Analysis of delta hepatitis virus (HDV) genomic RNA, derived from Greek patients from an area where HDV infection is associated with low pathogenicity, is described. In all isolates sequenced, which included 18/18 HDV cDNA clones derived from 6 different patients, irrespective of pathogenicity, a base change (T-->C) was found in position 1014. No significant differences in editing efficiency were found between isolates from inactive and active forms of the disease, although L-antigen was present in low to undetectable levels in the serum of 5/6 patients. An additional mutation was identified at position 578 (A-->G), which reestablishes the canonical base pair G/C with the mutated 1014 when the genome adopts the ""rod-like"" conformation. This finding supports the presence of this genome conformation in vivo and the requirement for the Watson-Crick base pair 1014/578. A mutation, found at amino acid position 170 (serine-->asparagine), appears to segregate with patients with inactive disease.

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.
