Antiviral resistance mutations potentiate hepatitis B virus immune evasion through disruption of its surface antigen a determinant

The hepatitis B virus (HBV) pol gene overlaps the S gene encoding surface antigen (HBsAg). It has been reported previously that drug-induced changes in HBsAg alter its binding to sera from humans immunized against HBV. We investigate here the changes to specific epitopes in the a determinant (the ma...
