Abstract On the basis of a seroepidemiological survey of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection conducted on 6208 random serum samples from four provinces of Thailand, we found 19 of 246 (7.7%) hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg)-positive samples with unusual serological constellations of HBV infection. Ten samples tested positive for HBsAg, anti-HBc (anti-hepatitis B core antibody), and anti-HBs (anti-hepatitis B surface antibody) markers (group I), 3 specimens were HBsAg and anti-HBs positive without detectable anti-HBc (group II), and the remaining 6 specimens showed only HBsAg (group III). In group I, 7 of 10 HBsAg-positive sera could be confirmed by HBsAg neutralization, yielding positive results for all samples. None of the group II sera were available in sufficient amounts for confirmation. In group III, five of six sera were confirmed by HBsAg neutralization, with four showing a positive reaction. HBV DNA was detected in 7 of 10 (70%) specimens in group I, in 1 of 3 (33.3%) specimens in group II, and in 3 of 6 (50%) specimens in group III. On the basis of HBsAg neutralization, HBV DNA was found in five of seven (71.4%) HBsAg-positive samples in group I and in three of four (75%) HBsAg-positive samples in group III, whereas the one confirmed HBsAg-negative sample in group III also remained negative for HBV DNA. Amino acid sequences were compared with those specifying the ""a"" determinant of the wild-type virus, particularly focusing on HBV-S protein variations between positions 110 and 160. Among 11 HBV DNA-positive sera, G145A was detected in 2 samples in group I, with the remaining samples identical to the wild-type virus. These unusual serological profiles may be due to the altered immune response of the host or to HBV variants.

Mutation Information
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.
