tood. Our previous characterization of core promoter mutations to reduce HBeAg production revealed the ability of the 3.5-kb pgRNA to diminish transcription of coterminal RNAs of 2.4 kb, 2.1 kb, and 0.7 kb. The later stage of chronic HBV infection often selects for in-frame deletions in the preS region. Here, we found that many 3' preS1 deletions prevented transcription of the 2.1-kb RNA for HBsAg production, which was often accompanied by increases in intracellular 3.5-, 0.7-, and especially 2.4-kb RNAs, HBx and core proteins, a
