Abstract We report a case of cytomegalovirus encephalitis in a hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipient. A previously uncharacterized V787E mutation in UL54 was identified in cerebrospinal fluid but not plasma specimens. For the V787E recombinant virus, the half maximal effective concentrations for ganciclovir, foscarnet, and cidofovir were 8.6-, 3.4- and 2.9-fold higher than for wild-type virus, and the replicative capacity was lower. The introduction of a bulkier and negatively charged glutamate residue at position 787 could destabilize the finger domain of UL54 DNA polymerase. Viral genotyping of cerebrospinal fluid is warranted in subjects with cytomegalovirus encephalitis, owing to the low penetration of antivirals in this compartment.

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.
