Abstract excerpt
Comparative nucleotide sequence studies of a 2.4-kb cDNA fragment (nt -49 to 2361) of Korean-type hepatitis C virus (HCV) were carried out. The nt sequences of the Korean HCV isolates have stronger sequence homologies with type II HCV (Japanese HCV-BK) than with types I (HCV-1) or III (HCV-6). In...
