Abstract excerpt

GB virus C (GBV-C), a positive-strand RNA virus, currently infects approximately one-sixth of the world's population. This virus exists as a collection of genotypes whose global distribution correlates with geographical origin. Genotyping of GBV-C isolates by phylogenetic analysis has relied upon the use of 5'-untranslated region (5'-UTR) sequences, however, complete genome sequences are used to demonstrate...
