Characterization and phylogenetic analysis of a novel hepatitis D virus strain discovered by restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis.
1 May 1998
Abstract excerpt
The hepatitis D virus (HDV) genotypes in 46 HDV-infected patients and 12 prostitutes were screened with Xhol restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis of reverse transcription PCR products of viral genomes and verified by phylogenetic analysis. The amplificates of three (6.5%) patients and two (17%) prostitutes showed a novel RFLP pattern different from those of the three known genotypes. Complete...
