Abstract excerpt

Some chronic HBV carriers have circulating HBV DNA despite the presence of anti-HBeAg antibodies. This observation has recently been related to the presence, in the HBV pre-C region, of a translational stop codon that prevents HBeAg synthesis. In the present study, we analyzed, at the nucleotide level, the pre-C/C region of HBV isolated from the sera of 11 anti-HBe, HBV DNA-positive chronic carriers. Nucleotide...
