A new hepatitis B virus variant in a chronic carrier with multiple episodes of viral reactivation and acute hepatitis.

Virology - 1 Nov 1990

Abstract excerpt

To examine whether there are HBV variants not yet described which cannot express HBe due to a mutation in the pre-C region, and, if they exist, whether they cause a particular course of infection and disease, we analyzed the HBV genomes of a HBs/anti-HBe positive chronic carrier who had several episodes of acute reexacerbations of chronic hepatitis with at least two viremic phases. Direct sequencing of the...
