Relationship between the different replication status of HBV and mutations in the core promoter in mothers and their children infected via mother-to-infant transmission.

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To study the relationship between the different replication status of hepatitis B virus (HBV) and mutations in the core promoter (CP) in mother and her child infected by mother-to-infant transmission. METHODS: The core promoter was amplified by PCR and cloned into pGEM-T vector with the T-A cloning technique. The recombinant plasmid pGEM-CP was confirmed by digestion with restriction enzyme Apa I and...
