Relationship between interferon therapy and variability in nonstructural gene 5b of hepatitis C virus.

Journal of gastroenterology - 1 Oct 1998

Tao Q, Wei L, Chang J, Wang H, Sun Y

Abstract excerpt

The hepatitis C virus (HCV) quasispecies nature in the hypervariable region (HVR) has been reported and found to relate to the effectiveness of interferon (IFN) treatment. However, the quasispecies nature in the nonstructural (NS) 5b region remains to be addressed. To examine this characterizatio...
