## BACKGROUND. A point mutation from G to A at nucleotide (nt) 1896 of the precore region of hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA has been shown to be associated with fulminant and severe hepatitis. Further studies have suggested that this point mutation, together with additional mutations in the precore p

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) subtype distribution was studied in 395 chronically infected patients from Germany. HCV genotype 1 was most frequent (80.5%). One hundred forty-three individuals (36.2%) were infected with subtype 1a and 175 (44.3%) were suffering from subtype 1b infection, respectively. HCV
