Abstract INTRODUCTION: Reactivation of hepatitis B virus (HBV) is a complication of immunosuppressive treatment in patients with a history of HBV exposure. CASE PRESENTATION: Herein we have reported a case of reactivation after renal transplantation in a 52-year-old male chronic HBV carrier who was treated with hepatitis B immunoglobulin (HBIg) prophylaxis immediately after transplantation in addition to cyclosporine, mycophenolate mofetil and prednisolone for maintenance immunosuppression. After application of rituximab, the patient developed clinical hepatitis with a high load of HBV DNA. Sequence analysis of the surface (S) antigen corresponding to the amino acid residues 101-186 (including the a-determinant region) revealed a genotype D mutant strain, subtype ayw3 with a single amino acid substitution D144E within the S gene. CONCLUSION: This case suggested that immunosuppressive treatment enhanced with rituximab promoted the emergence of an HBV mutant within the determinant region of the S antigen, which escaped HBIg immunoprophylaxis causing HBV reactivation in a kidney transplant recipient.

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.
