Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To study whether the substitutions at the major hydrophilic region II (MHRII) of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) will impair the antigenicity of HBsAg. METHODS: Four recombinant plasmids expressing mutant HBsAg (mtHBsAg) P1120T, C121S, K122I and T123N were constructed. HepG2 cells were transfected with the four plasmids and a plasmid expressing G145R HBsAg. The immunoreactivity of the cells...
