Mechanism of emergence of hepatitis B virus escape variants: approaches to prevention.

Journal of viral hepatitis - 1 Nov 1998

Thomas H C

Abstract excerpt

Hepatitis B virus causes a chronic infection in a large proportion of cases. One possible mechanism whereby hepatitis B avoids the host defences is by mutation of antigenic epitopes. This article reviews current views in the area.
