Abstract excerpt

We have previously reported 2 subtypes of hepatitis B virus (HBV) genotype B, one of which has the recombination with genotype C over the precore region plus core gene (Ba) and the other of which does not (Bj). A restriction fragment-length polymorphism method with 2 endonucleases was newly developed for distinguishing between subtypes Ba and Bj and was applied to 313 carriers of HBV genotype B in Japan. Subtype...
