Analysis of HCV-6 isolates among Asian-born immigrants in North America reveals their high genetic diversity and a new subtype.

Virology - 1 May 2016

Abstract excerpt

We characterized full-length genomes for 15 HCV-6 isolates, all from Asian immigrants living in North America. Among these isolates, nine were novel variants showing >15% nucleotide differences from their nearest relatives, representing lineages distinct from known subtypes. The other six were classified into subtypes 6c, 6h, 6q, 6r, and 6s. The partial sequences were also determined for five additional HCV-6...
