Abstract Hepatitis B virus (HBV) vaccine is composed of the purified hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) that is produced by recombinant DNA technology. The neutralizing antibodies induced by vaccination target mainly the ""a"" determinant, aa124-147, of the outer viral envelope (HBsAg). In the present work, we demonstrate a case study for vaccinated patient that is infected with a vaccine escape HBV strain (Eg200). Characterization of the isolate Eg200 showed that it belongs to the genotype D and an uncommon sub-genotype in Egypt; D9. The DNA sequence encoding HBsAg was sequenced. Mutational analysis of the HBsAg showed a double mutation in the ""a"" determinant of this HBV isolate; T125M and P127T. However, such substitutions were found to be conserved to the detected serotype, ayw3, of Eg200 isolate. This case report indicates that continuous characterization of breakthrough vaccine escape strains of HBV is essential to develop the immunization strategies against HBV infection.

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.
  • Location: The source of the research data.
Literature Information
