Unique surface gene variants of hepatitis B virus isolated from patients in the Philippines.

Journal of medical virology - 1 Feb 2014

Baclig Michael O, Alvarez May R, Gopez-Cervantes Juliet, Natividad Filipinas F

Abstract excerpt

Point mutations and multiple variants across the "a" determinant can destroy the antigenicity and immunogenicity of hepatitis B virus (HBV) leading to false negative assay and vaccine escape. In this study, the presence of surface gene variants of HBV was investigated among patients clinically diagnosed with chronic hepatitis B and positive for HBV DNA from 2002 to 2009. Sequence analysis of the surface gene of...
