Sequence and Functional Analysis of the Envelope Glycoproteins of Hepatitis C Virus Variants Selectively Transmitted to a New Host
10 Oct 2013
Abstract excerpt
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) remains a challenging public health problem worldwide. The identification of viral variants establishing de novo infections and definition of the phenotypic requirements for transmission would facilitate the design of preventive strategies. We explored the transmission of HCV variants in three cases of acute hepatitis following needlestick accidents. We used single-genome amplification of...
