Abstract Drug resistance is a crucial problem emerging frequently during treatment of hepatitis B, resulting in treatment failure and progression of liver damage. A direct sequencing method based on a nested PCR was established to detect mutations in samples with low viral load. Primers were designed to obtain an amplicon encompassing the A, B, C, D and E functional domains of HBV polymerase. Fifty-five samples were tested, containing HBV DNA ranging from 19 to 1700 IU/mL. Sixteen samples were also tested by the commercially available assay INNO-LiPA HBV DR v2. Sequencing was successful for all samples, and mutations were detected in 24/55 (43.6%). When used in parallel with DR v2, concordant results were found in 8/16 samples. In the eight discordant cases, four were resolved by sequencing and not by DR v2, and four had differences in the mutation patterns. Direct sequencing was able to show pol mutations not revealed by DR v2, such as rtV214A, rtQ215H/S, and rtM250V. Genotype and env variations were also established. This highly sensitive sequencing protocol, providing valuable sequencing data from samples with a low viral load, is suitable for detection of mutations at the very early signs of failure of treatment, thereby allowing to maximize the success of early treatment changes.

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.
