Abstract Although hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is endemic in Southeast Asia, molecular epidemiological data on HBV circulating in some countries are limited. The aims of this study were to evaluate the seroprevalence of HBV and its genetic variability among migrant workers from Cambodia, Laos, and Myanmar in Thailand. Sera collected from 1,119 Cambodian, 787 Laotian, and 1,103 Myanmarese workers were tested for HBsAg. HBV DNA was amplified and the pre-S/S region was sequenced for genotyping and genetic mutation analysis. HBsAg was detected in 282 (9.4%). The prevalence of HBsAg among migrant workers from Cambodia, Laos, and Myanmar was 10.8%, 6.9%, and 9.7%, respectively. Of 224 subjects positive for HBV DNA, 86% were classified as genotype C (99% were sub-genotype C1) and 11.6% were genotype B (30.8%, 34.6%, and 30.8% were sub-genotypes B2, B3, and B4, respectively). Various point mutations in the ""a"" determinant region were detected in approximately 18% of these samples, of which Ile126Ser/Asn was the most frequent variant. Sequencing analysis showed that 19.1% of samples had pre-S mutations, with pre-S2 deletion as the most common mutant (7.7%) followed by pre-S2 start codon mutation (3.8%) and both pre-S2 deletion and start codon mutation (3.3%). High prevalence of HBV infection (approximately 7-11%) was found among migrant workers from Cambodia, Laos, and Myanmar, which may reflect the current seroprevalence in their respective countries. The data also demonstrated that HBV sub-genotype C1 was the predominant strain and various mutations of HBV occurring naturally were not uncommon among these populations.

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
