Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Development of cirrhosis in renal transplant recipients with chronic hepatitis B is associated with the accumulation of complex hepatitis B virus (HBV) variants carrying deletions in the C gene and/or preS region and deletions/insertions in the core promoter. Here, we characterized for the first time the phenotype of these complex HBV variants. METHODS: Representative full-length genomes of the...
