Abstract excerpt
The most characteristic feature of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) genome in patients with chronic hepatitis C is its remarkable variability and diversity. To better understand this feature, we performed genetic analysis of HCV replicons recovered from two human hepatoma HuH-7-derived cell lines after 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9 years in culture: The cell lines 50-1 and sO harbored HCV 1B-1 and O strain-derived HCV replicons...
