摘要
目的 探讨慢性乙型肝炎(CHB)患者血清中乙型肝炎病毒(HBV)是否存在准种特性,并初步了解HBV准种的复杂性和遗传差异性。 方法用多聚酶链反应(PCR)技术从1例CHB患者血清中扩增HBV整个PreC/C基因区,然后用T载体克隆PCR产物,从转化阳性的克隆中随机选出34个克隆进行核酸序列分析。结果在34个测序克隆中发现存在28种不同的序列,序列间差异性介于0.2％～2.1％。变异位点分布于整个区域。所有序列nt1896位均无变异。 结论 在CHB患者体内HBV存在复杂的准种特性。
Objectives To investigate whether the hepatitis B virus (HBV) has quasispecies character by studying nucleotide sequence polymorphism and mutation features of HBV PreC/C gene region, and preliminaryly explore the heterogeneity of HBV quasispecies. Methods The serum sample was obtained from a patient with chronic hepatitis B, and the whole HBV PreC/C gene region was amplified by PCR and cloned. Thirty-four clones that contained HBV PreC/ C gene fragments were sequenced. Results There were 28 kinds of different nucleotide sequences in 34 clones, and the nucleotide sequences diversity ranged from 0.2% to 2.1%. The mutation points were almost distributed in the whole region, but there wasn't mutation at PreC region nt.1 896 point in all sequences. Conclusion Hepatitis B virus has complex quasispecies character in the patients with chronic hepatitis B.
