Abstract excerpt
Sequence variation in the putative non-structural region 5b (NS5b) of hepatitis C virus (HCV) was analyzed in China. Complementary DNA fragments from sera of 49 Chinese patients were amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and the products were cloned and sequenced. Based on the comparison in NS5b of 33 clones of genotype 1b and 16 clones of genotype 2a, Chinese isolates of HCV belong to the same subtype as...
