The sodium-dependent taurocholate co-transporting polypeptide (NTCP)-S267F variant is known to be associated with a reduced risk of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection and disease progression. The NTCP-S267F variant displays diminished function in mediating HBV entry, but its function in HBV infection has not been fully established in more biologically relevant models. We introduced the NTCP-S267F variant and tested infectivity by HBV in genetically edited hepatic cells. HepG2-NTCP clones with both homozygous and heterozygous variants were identified after CRISPR base editing. NTCP-S267F homozygous clones did not support HBV infection. The heterozygote clones behaved similarly to wild-type clones. We generated genetically edited human stem cells with the NTCP-S267F variant, which differentiated equally well as wild-type into hepatocyte-like cells (HLCs) expressing high levels of hepatocyte differentiation markers. We confirmed that HLCs with homozygous variant did not support HBV infection, and heterozygous variant clones were infected with HBV equally as well as the wild-type cells. In conclusion, we successfully introduced the S267F variant by CRISPR base editing into the NTCP/SLC10A gene of hepatocytes, and showed that the variant is a loss-of-function mutation. This technology of studying genetic variants and their pathogenesis in a natural context is potentially valuable for therapeutic intervention against HBV. The authors introduced the S267F polymorphism into the HBV receptor NTCP gene of human hepatic cells using CRISPR base editing. They characterized the functional effect of homozygous or heterozygous NTCP-S267F variant on HBV infection and showed that the variant is a loss-of-function mutation. The findings have implications in the pathogenesis and therapy of HBV.
