Abstract A case of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) drug-resistance in a congenitally infected newborn is described. Unusual aspects of this case include: (i) the detection of an extremely complex virus population, composed of a mixture of wild-type (wt) and multiple mutant ganciclovir (GCV) and valganciclovir (val-GCV) resistant strains carrying a variety of known mutations in UL97; (ii) the identification of novel UL97 mutations and (iii) the first time detection of combined UL97 drug resistance mutations in the same viral strain. In detail, four known UL97 single-nucleotide mutations (A594T/V, M460V/I, C592G), a new amino-acid substitution (C607S), and a new deletion (597-600) in one of the three UL97 hot spots for GCV/val-GCV resistance (codons 460, 520 and 590-607) were detected. In addition, the combination of M460V+A594V and M460V+C592G was observed for the first time. The emergence of HCMV drug-resistance in symptomatic congenital infections chronically treated with GCV or val-GCV should be taken into account. The immaturity of the neonatal immune system may contribute to selection of complex virus populations in these patients.

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.
