Variability in hepatitis B virus DNA: phylogenetic, epidemiological and clinical implications.

Scandinavian journal of infectious diseases - 1 Jan 1996

Kidd-Ljunggren K

Abstract excerpt

Hepatitis B virus has the smallest of all known human DNA virus genomes (3.2 kb) and a unique replication strategy with an intermediate reverse transcription step. The naturally occurring genetic variability between different HBV strains provides the basis for phylogenetic analysis. Four main genotypes of HBV have been found, with the possible existence of 1 or 2 more. The different genotypes largely follow a...
