Detection of Hepatitis G Virus Replication Sites by Using Highly Strand-Specific Tth-Based Reverse Transcriptase PCR
1 Apr 1998
Abstract excerpt
The replication sites of the recently discovered hepatitis G virus (HGV) remain unknown. Using highly strand-specific Tth-based reverse transcriptase PCR, we searched for the presence of viral RNA negative strand in multiple autopsy tissues from four patients with AIDS and in peripheral blood mononuclear cells from six other human immunodeficiency virus-positive patients. Negative-strand HGV RNA was detected in...
