Distinctive sequence characteristics of subgenotype A1 isolates of hepatitis B virus from South Africa.

The Journal of general virology - 1 May 2004

Kimbi Gerald C, Kramvis Anna, Kew Michael C

Abstract excerpt

Phylogenetic analysis of hepatitis B virus (HBV) has led to its classification into eight genotypes, A to H. The dominant genotype in South Africa is genotype A, which consists of two subgenotypes, A1 and A2. Subgenotype A1 (previously subgroup A') predominates over subgenotype A2 (previously subgroup A minus A'). The complete genome of HBV isolated from 18 asymptomatic carriers of the virus and five acute...
