Abstract excerpt
Hepatitis A virus (HAV) isolates from different parts of the world are a single serotype. However, genetic analysis of the VP1 genome region of published HAV sequences suggested that distinct genotypes of HAV could be defined based upon the geographic source of the original isolates. To circumven...
