Distribution of TT virus (TTV), TTV-like minivirus, and related viruses in humans and nonhuman primates.

Virology - 15 Feb 2003

Thom K, Morrison C, Lewis J C M, Simmonds P

Abstract excerpt

TT virus (TTV) and TTV-like minivirus (TLMV) are small DNA viruses with single-stranded, closed circular, antisense genomes infecting man. Despite their extreme sequence heterogeneity (>50%), a highly conserved region in the untranslated region (UTR) allows both viruses to be amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). TTV/TLMV infection was detected in 88 of 100 human plasma samples; amplified sequences were...
