Abstract Most wild strains of Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) produce NS1' protein, which plays an important role in viral infection and immune escape. The G66A nucleotide mutation in NS2A gene of the wild strain SA14 prevented the ribosomal frameshift that prevented the production of NS1' protein, thus reduced the virulence. In this study, the 66th nucleotide of the NS2A gene of SA14 was mutated into A, U or C, respectively. Both the G66U and G66C mutations cause the E22D mutation of the NS2A protein. Subsequently, the expression of NS1' protein, plaque size, replication ability, and virulence to mice of the three mutant strains were examined. The results showed that the three mutant viruses could not express NS1' protein, and their proliferation ability in nerve cells and virulence to mice were significantly reduced. In addition, the SA14(G66C) was less virulent than the other two mutated viruses. Our results indicate that only when G is the 66th nucleotide of NS2A, the JEV can produce NS1' protein, which affects the virulence.

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.
