A previously unrecognized sixth genotype of GB virus C revealed by analysis of 5'-untranslated region sequences.

Journal of medical virology - 1 Jan 2006

Muerhoff A Scott, Dawson George J, Desai Suresh M

Abstract excerpt

GB virus C (GBV-C) is a positive-strand RNA virus that infects a large proportion of the world's human population. It has been classified tentatively as a member of the Flaviviridae family and has been shown to exist as a group of five closely related genotypes. Recently, we reported the first full-length genome sequence of a genotype 5 isolate from South Africa. As part of the analysis of that sequence, a...
