Abstract Baloxavir marboxil (BXM) is an antiviral drug that targets the endonuclease of the influenza polymerase acidic (PA) protein. Antiviral resistance, mainly mediated by the I38T PA substitution, readily occurs in both A(H1N1) and A(H3N2) viruses following a single dose of BXM. Influenza B resistance to BXM remains poorly documented. We aimed to generate baloxavir-resistant contemporary influenza B/Yamagata/16/1988- and B/Victoria/2/1987-like viruses by in vitro passages under baloxavir acid (BXA) pressure to identify resistance mutations and to characterize the fitness of drug-resistant variants. Influenza B/Phuket/3073/2013 recombinant virus (rg-PKT13, a B/Yamagata/16/1988-like virus) and B/Quebec/MCV-11/2019 (MCV19, a B/Victoria/2/1987-like isolate) were passaged in ST6GalI-MDCK cells in the presence of increasing concentrations of BXA. At defined passages, viral RNA was extracted for sequencing the PA gene. The I38T PA substitution was selected in MCV19 after six passages in presence of BXA whereas no PA change was detected in rg-PKT13. The I38T substitution increased the BXA IC(50) value by 13.7-fold in the MCV19 background and resulted in reduced viral titers compared to the wild type (WT) at early time points in ST6GalI-MDCK and at all time-points in human epithelial cells. By contrast, the I38T substitution had no impact on MCV19 polymerase activity, and this mutation was genetically stable over four passages. In conclusion, our results show a similar pathway of resistance to BXA in influenza B viruses highlighting the major role of the I38T PA substitution and suggest that I38T may differently impact the fitness of influenza variants depending on the viral type, subtype, or lineage.

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
