Full-length genomic sequence of hepatitis B virus genotype C2 isolated from a native Brazilian patient.
The hepatitis B virus (HBV) is among the leading causes of chronic hepatitis, cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. In Brazil, genotype A is the most frequent, followed by genotypes D and F. Genotypes B and C are found in Brazil exclusively among Asian patients and their descendants. The aim of this study was to sequence the entire HBV genome of a Caucasian patient infected with HBV/C2 and to...
متن کاملFull-length sequence of hepatitis B virus belonging to genotype H identified in a Japanese patient with chronic hepatitis.
We have isolated and cloned the full-length nucleotide sequence of the hepatitis B virus (HBV) genome (denoted HBV-IM806-2) recovered from a Japanese patient with chronic hepatitis. This patient had a history of travel to Bangkok, Thailand, and then suffered the onset of acute hepatitis B 3 months after his return to Japan. The HBV-IM806-2 isolate was composed of 3,215 nucleotides and showed th...
متن کاملFull-Genome Sequence of a Hepatitis B Virus Genotype F1b Clone from a Chronically Infected Chilean Patient
The hepatitis B virus (HBV) is a DNA virus belonging to the Hepadnaviridae family. Viral isolates have been classified into 10 genotypes, named from A to J, and several subtypes. We report the full-genome sequence from a single molecular clone of HBV genotype F1b, amplified from a chronically infected Chilean patient.
متن کاملFull-Length Genomic Sequence of Subgenotype IIIA Hepatitis A Virus Isolate in Republic of Korea
Hepatitis A virus is known to cause acute hepatitis and has significant implications for public health throughout the world. In the Republic of Korea, the number of patients with hepatitis A virus infection has been increasing rapidly since 2006. In this study, the Kor-HAV-F strain was identified as subgenotype IIIA by RT-PCR, and its identity was confirmed by nucleotide sequencing and alignmen...
متن کاملIdentification of Novel A2/C2 Inter-Genotype Recombinants of Hepatitis B Virus from a Korean Chronic Patient Co-Infected with Both Genotype A2 and C2
Nearly all cases of Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infections in South Korea have the C2 genotype. Here, we have identified a chronically infected patient who was co-infected with HBV of both the A2 and C2 genotypes by screening 135 Korean chronically infected patients using direct sequencing protocols targeting the 1032-bp polymerase reverse transcriptase (RT) region. Further polymerase chain reactio...
