Abstract BACKGROUND: We report on two allogeneic stem cell transplant recipients who developed cytomegalovirus disease associated with new viral mutations that conferred antiviral drug resistance. METHODS: Blood specimens obtained during symptomatic disease were analyzed for mutations in the CMV UL97 and DNA polymerase genes and new mutations were assessed by recombinant phenotyping. RESULTS: Rising cytomegalovirus (CMV) antigenemia occurred after 4-5 months of preemptive valganciclovir therapy, followed by symptomatic CMV disease including fatal pneumonia in one case. In one case, a new viral UL97 mutation (deletion of codons 601-603) was found which conferred 15-fold increased ganciclovir resistance. In the other case, a known UL97 resistance mutation M460V and a new DNA polymerase (pol) mutation D413A were found. D413A conferred ganciclovir and cidofovir resistance. CONCLUSIONS: Known and newly discovered drug resistance mutations arising during preemptive therapy may complicate post-transplant CMV disease in stem cell recipients. Improved recombinant phenotyping methods enable the rapid quantitation of the resistance conferred by newly identified UL97 and pol mutations.

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
