Spontaneous mutations of hepatitis B virus (HBV) could influence the severity of liver disease. Since the basal core promoter (BCP) and the precore (Pc) regions are important for viral replication, these regions were examined for naturally occurring mutations and were correlated with the genotype, e
Double point mutation in the core promoter region of hepatitis B virus (HBV) genotype C may be related to liver deterioration in patients with chronic HBV infection

To investigate the meaning of the mutations in the enhancer 2/core promoter (Enh2/CP) region of hepatitis B virus (HBV) during the chronic HBV infection, mutations were examined in the Enh2/ CP region (carboxyl half of X region) and their correlation with mutations in the precore and core regions in
## Abstract The interferon sensitivityβdetermining region (ISDR) is useful as a predictive marker of the response to interferon (IFN) therapy for chronic hepatitis patients with a Japanβspecific subtype (Jβtype) of hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 1b. This marker is not useful for predicting respon
