【 摘 要 】

Human hepatitis delta virus (HDV) is a small defective RNA satellite virus that requires hepatitis B virus (HBV) envelope proteins to form its own virions. The HDV genome possesses a single coding open reading frame (ORF), located on a replicative intermediate, the antigenome, encoding the small (s) and the large (L) isoforms of the delta antigen (s-HDAg and L-HDAg). The latter is produced following an editing process, changing the amber/stop codon on the s-HDAg-ORF into a tryptophan codon, allowing L-HDAg synthesis by the addition of 19 (or 20) C-terminal amino acids. The two delta proteins play different roles in the viral cell cycle: s-HDAg activates genome replication, while L-HDAg blocks replication and favors virion morphogenesis and propagation. L-HDAg has also been involved in HDV pathogenicity. Understanding the kinetics of viral editing rates in vivo is key to unravel the biology of the virus and understand its spread and natural history. We developed and validated a new assay based on next-generation sequencing and aimed at quantifying HDV RNA editing in plasma. We analyzed plasma samples from 219 patients infected with different HDV genotypes and showed that HDV editing capacity strongly depends on the genotype of the strain.
