Two distinct types of hepatitis B virus core promoter variants in Yemeni blood donors.

Journal of medical virology - 1 Nov 2002

Sallam Talal A, Tong C Y William

Abstract excerpt

Genetic variations in the basic core promoter (BCP) region of hepatitis B virus (HBV) occur during the natural history of chronic HBV infection. This study investigates the presence of basic core promoter variations in 28 asymptomatic Yemeni blood donors, correlating variations with HBeAg phenotype and viral load. The core promoter/precore and surface gene region of HBV DNA were amplified using nested PCRs and...
