Abstract Little is known about specific naturally occurring mutations of hepatitis B virus (HBV) and underlying mechanisms of their association with fulminant hepatitis. A HBV clone isolated from a patient with fulminant hepatitis was analyzed, and the features of the particular mutations observed around furin cleavage site in core region (A2339G/G2345A) were assessed using an in vitro replication model. The clone belonged to genotype B with precore stop codon mutation (G1896A). Replication efficiency of 1.24-fold HBV genome in Huh-7 cells was increased in the presence of A2339G. Further in vitro studies using furin inhibitor indicated that the effect of the mutation was probably associated with accumulation of the full-length core protein without cleavage by furin-like protease, suggesting that a processing of the core protein might play an important role in regulation of viral replication. In conclusion, the A2339G mutation was considered as one of the viral factors involved in high replication efficiency.

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.
