HBV Mutation Detail Information

Virus Mutation HBV Mutation G1896A


Basic Characteristics of Mutations
Mutation Site G1896A
Mutation Site Sentence When we considered the presence of G1896A mutation in any one of the three serum samples of the seroconverter group, we found this mutation appeared in 25 (45.5%) of 55 of the seroconverters during the follow-up course, whereas 6 of them had this mutant reverted back to the wild type in the third serum sample.

Abstract Precore nucleotide 1896 and core promoter mutations may account for hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) seroconversion in chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, yet the mutational profiles of the core promoter are largely unknown in children. An age-matched, case-control study enrolled 110 chronic HBV-infected children, including 55 HBeAg seroconverters and 55 nonseroconverters. Precore and core promoter genes of HBV were sequenced and the serum viral genomes were genotyped from three serial serum samples of the seroconverters and from one serum sample of the nonseroconverters. Higher frequency of A1775G and G1799C mutation rates and lower frequency of A1752G mutation rate were found in the seroconverters. Precore 1896 mutation appeared more in seroconverters than in nonseroconverters (45.5% versus 10.9%; p < 0.001). 1762 + 1764 mutation rates were not different between the seroconverters (9.1%) and the nonseroconverters (5.5%). Genotype B was the major type. Genotype C was associated with core promoter 1762 + 1764 mutations in the seroconverter group (p = 0.023). The conclusions of this study include the following: 1) mutations of core promoter at nucleotide position 1752, 1775, and 1799 have significant correlations with HBeAg seroconversion; 2) core promoter 1762 + 1764 mutations play a minimal role in HBeAg seroconversion; 3) precore 1896 mutant accounted for half of childhood HBeAg seroconversion; 4) genotype C is associated with 1762 + 1764 mutations during the process of HBeAg seroconversion.

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.
