Abstract This study aimed to investigate clinical occurrence and significance of the rtS78T/sC69* mutation of hepatitis B virus (HBV). A total of 22,009 consecutive chronic HBV-infected patients who underwent resistance testing at the Fifth Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital (Original name Beijing 302 Hospital) from 2007 to 2016 were enrolled. Serum samples were collected for sequence analysis of HBV reverse-transcriptase (RT) and S regions. Phenotypic analysis was performed to evaluate the viral replication capacity and drug susceptibility. The rtS78T mutation was detected in 0.83% (182/22,009) of the patients' samples. All mutations simultaneously created a stop codon at sC69 (sC69*). The prevalence of rtS78T/sC69* did not differ significantly between the patients with and without entecavir/tenofovir treatment. Of the 182 mutation-positive samples, 41 (22.5%) were detected with signature drug-resistance mutations to adefovir (n = 26), lamivudine (n = 11), entecavir (n = 3), and lamivudine plus adefovir (n = 1). The HBV DNA and RNA levels of the rtS78T/sC69* mutant were significantly increased compared to the wild-type; while the mutant had undetectable secreted and intracellular HBsAg, and its half maximal effective concentration to lamivudine, adefovir, entecavir, and tenofovir were 3.73-, 1.61-, 4.76-, and 3.71-fold of the wild-type, respectively. Artificial elimination of the rtS78T mutation had a limited effect on the drug susceptibilities. The data obtained in the present study suggested that the emergence of the rtS78T/sC69* mutation was not closely related to entecavir/tenofovir treatment and itself appeared insufficient to confer drug resistance unless it coexisted with signature drug-resistance mutations.

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
