Virus Mutation HBV Mutation V521L


Basic Characteristics of Mutations
Mutation Site V521L
Mutation Site Sentence One patient (NR21) selected a I68N and P120T corresponding to mutations N424K and T476N within the HBV-DNA polymerase, 2 patients (R03, PR11) selected a E164D corresponding to a V521L mutation within the HBV-DNA polymerase, 1 (R02) selected a Q120P mutation on FCV, and another 1 (R04) selected a W172Stop mutation of the HBsAg corresponding to a A529T mutation within the HBV-DNA polymerase.

Abstract Famciclovir (FCV) and lamivudine (LAM) reduce viral replication in patients with recurrent hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). Eighteen of 20 patients with insufficient response to FCV were treated with 100 mg LAM daily after OLT. These patients had shown nonresponse (n = 5), partial response (n = 7), or breakthrough (n = 6) during FCV therapy. Despite passive immunoprophylaxis with hepatitis B immunoglobulin after liver transplantation, HBV reinfection had occurred in 14 of 15 transplanted patients. HBV-DNA levels and the regions A to E of the HBV-DNA polymerase gene were analyzed before and after treatment failure to either therapy. Within 4 weeks on LAM, all but 1 patient showed a 95% average reduction of the HBV-DNA level. As with FCV, we did not observe any severe side-effects attributable to LAM. However, 7 patients developed a breakthrough within 12, 29 (n = 2), 32, 37, 54, and 145 weeks under treatment with LAM associated with the methionine-to-valine signature mutation (M552V) in the YMDD motif in all. With FCV, no unique, but a dominant, resistance pattern with the L528M mutation was identified for patients with breakthrough under FCV. In contrast, nonresponders or patients with partial response to FCV did not exhibit such mutations. Our results indicate that the L528M mutation is a risk factor for LAM breakthrough, because breakthrough during LAM occurred earlier in patients with this mutation (50 +/- 10 weeks vs. 120 +/- 21 weeks). Because breakthrough on either treatment is frequent for this specific group of patients, the use of combination therapy should be explored.

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.
