## Abstract The eight genotypes of hepatitis B virus (HBV), A–H, have a characteristic geographical distribution. The high prevalence of genotype E within a wide expanse of Africa makes it important to characterize this genotype. Although the preS/S region of a large number of genotype E isolates h

Interferon ␣ (IFN ␣) can suppress the replication of hepatitis C virus (HCV) in chronically infected patients. However, HCV persists in a significant number of patients despite the normalization of alanine transaminase (ALT) during IFN ␣ therapy. In this study, HCV variants in patients under IFN ␣ t
