Abstract Hepatitis B virus (HBV) mutants have usually been studied in patients in Asia because of the wider use of HBV immunization there and the resultant emergence of viral mutants. Nevertheless, HBV surface antigen (S) gene mutants also are found in Europe and North America. In Europe and North America, HBV with mutations in the portion of the S gene coding the ""a"" determinant of the hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) have been documented in small numbers of infants born to HBV-infected mothers following post-natal HBV vaccine and hepatitis B immune globulin (HBIG) prophylaxis and in many liver transplant recipients who develop HBV re-infection despite HBIG prophylaxis. In some cases, these mutations have included a glycine to arginine substitution at position 145 (G145R), which results in a conformational change and different reactivity to monoclonal antibody reagents than that of the wild-type virus. Mutations in the a determinant (but not G145R) also have been reported in European patients with chronic HBV infection who have not received HBV vaccine or HBIG. However, it appears that such mutations are only responsible for a small proportion of ""occult"" or ""silent"" HBV infections, which are characterized by the presence of HBV DNA in serum in the absence of detectable HBsAg. However, some of these mutant forms of HBV in cases of occult HBV may theoretically escape detection and could present a risk to blood safety.

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
