Abstract Among the many mutations found in the hepatitis B virus (HBV) genome, some have been associated with fulminant hepatitis, as exemplified by precore-defective mutations. The aim of this study was to determine whether such mutations also are found in Vietnamese cases of fulminant hepatitis B. The full-genome nucleotide sequence of HBV in three patients with fulminant hepatitis (F-2, F-3, and F-6) and one with acute hepatitis (A-3), who were admitted to Cho Ray Hospital, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam was ascertained. Additionally, two patients with fulminant hepatitis (F-1 and F-7) and three with acute hepatitis (A-1, A-2, and A-5) were examined only for the precore/core region of HBV. Remarkably, the nonsense mutation at precore codon 28 (Trp82Stop) was found in four of the five patients with fulminant hepatitis, while all the acute hepatitis patients harbored wild type (one had a mixture of wild and mutant types). The missense mutations within the core region, Ile97Leu and Pro130Ile/Thr/Ser, were also remarkable in fulminant hepatitis. Only F-2 was free from these precore/core mutations, but F-2 was unique in that it possessed a chimeric genotype: it could be classified into genotype C as a whole, but its X region was of genotype B, like the other four fulminant hepatitis isolates (F-1, F-3, F-6, and F-7). The codon 41 of the X protein was Pro in all three fulminant hepatitis cases examined for this region, while it was Ser in the wild-type isolates of genotype B. Of note as negative data, the mutations C1653T and T1753M of the enhancer II (Enh II) and A1762T and G1764A of the precore/core promoter regions, once reported to be relevant to severe or fulminant hepatitis, were not found in the present cases. The results with the Vietnamese cases of fulminant hepatitis corroborated results of previous studies with respect to the mutations Trp28Stop of precore and Ile97Leu and Pro130Ile/Thr/Ser of core, but not for the mutations within Enh II and precore/core promoter region. Whether the Ser41Pro mutation in the X region of genotype B HBV is Vietnam-specific or disease-specific deserves further investigation.

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.
