Abstract BACKGROUND: Genetic mutation might account for the presence of hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA among antiHBc only individuals. The aim of the study was to assess the prevalence and significance of surface gene mutations among antiHBc only cases in our population. METHODS: Three hundred and three antiHBc(+) sera of adults (mean age, 33.7+/-11.0; range 18-65 years) as well as HBsAg(+)/HBV DNA(+) (n=19) controls were included in this study. Surface gene and basal core promoter (BCP)-precore region were amplified and surface gene was analyzed after direct sequencing. RESULTS: One hundred and seventy-eight out of 303 (58.8%) was antiHBc only, 39/171 (22.8%) of them was HBV DNA(+). Genotypes A, C, D were found among both HBsAg(+) and antiHBc(+) samples. Single or multiple amino acids substitutions were found in 82% samples, however, G145R vaccine escape mutation was rare. Individuals having substitutions within as well as outside major hydrophilic loop (MHL) region were detected; some of these mutations were in overlapping RT domain of polymerase (Pol) gene. CONCLUSIONS: The existence of occult HBV infection among antiHBc only individuals could not be explained fully by mutations in the 'a' determinant region of surface gene in our population.

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.
  • Immune: The article focuses on the study of mutations and immune.
  • Target Gene: Host genes that viral mutations may affect.
Clinical and Epidemiological Correlations
  • Clinical Information: The study is a clinical or epidemiological study and provides basic information about the population.
  • Treatment: The study mentioned a certain treatment method, such as drug resistance caused by mutations. If the study does not specifically indicate the relationship between mutations and their correspondence treatment, the main treatment studied in the article is marked.
