Recombination of hepatitis D virus RNA sequences and its implications
1 Nov 1999
Abstract excerpt
Recombination between RNA sequences plays a role in the fast evolution of a few viruses. There has been no report on hepatitis D virus (HDV) recombination. In this study, we analyzed genetic recombination of HDV and its possible impact on evolution and clinical course. The aligned HDV sequences allowed us to construct a phylogenetic tree which supported the notion of distinct lineages of HDV. The tree was also...
