Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Hepatitis D virus (HDV) is the only known human satellite virus, and it requires hepatitis B virus (HBV) to form infectious particles. Until 2018 HDV was the sole representative of the genus Deltavirus . The subsequent identification of HDV-like agents in non-human hosts indicated a much longer evolutionary history of deltaviruses than previously hypothesized. Interestingly, none of the HDV-lik...
