Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Deep sequencing has a deep impact on the study of rapidly mutating RNA viruses, such as hepatitis C virus, proving to be an invaluable tool for analyzing virus diversity and evolution. AIM: Genotype-independent high-throughput pyrosequencing was used to obtain near full length hepatitis C virus genome sequence reconstruction directly from clinical samples. METHODS: Samples from hepatitis C virus...
