GB virus C/hepatitis G virus (GBV-C/HGV) is related distantly to hepatitis C virus (HCV). HCV has a hypervariable region (HVR), and exists as quasispecies in vivo. Although GBV-C/HGV also has replaceable amino acids in the presumed antigenic region, the existence and fluctuation of population of het
The putative interferon sensitivity determining region (ISDR) in the NS5a region of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) was analyzed in 13 interferon alpha (IFN-β£) treated patients representing genotypes 1a, 1b, and 2b. These patients had previously been followed longitudinally during treatment with respect
## Abstract The hypervariable region 1 (HVR1) has been most reliably identified in the genome of HCV genotype 1 isolates and thought to possibly play a role in immune evasion and development of chronic infection. There are few studies, however, of other HCV genotypes to determine if they also have
