Abstract Japanese encephalitis (JE) remains the leading cause of viral encephalitis in the Asia-Pacific region, and the live vaccine SA14-14-2 is currently recommended by WHO and widely used in Asian countries with a good safety and efficacy profile. In this study, we demonstrated that SA14-14-2 failed to produce NS1', the larger NS1-related protein, compared with its parental strain SA14 in various cells. Sequence analysis and secondary structure prediction identified a single silent mutation G66A in the NS2A-coding region of SA14-14-2 destabilized the conserved pseudoknot structure, which was associated with a -1 ribosomal frame shift event. Using reverse genetic technology and animal study, we provided solid evidence that this single silent mutation G66A in the NS2A gene abolished the production of NS1' in vitro and reduced neurovirulence and neuroinvasiveness in mice. These findings provide critical information in understanding the molecular mechanism of JE vaccine attenuation and is critical for JE vaccine quality control.

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
