## Abstract The nucleotide sequence of hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 6 found mostly in south China and southβeast Asia, displays profound genetic diversity. The aim of this study to determine the genetic variability of HCV genotype 6 (HCVβ6) in Thailand and locate the subtype distribution of gen

## Abstract The prognostic implication of viral genotype 1b for hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection has been controversial, possibly due to the pathogenetic heterogeneity of genotype 1b. We analyzed two newly delineated subtypes of HCV genotype 1b subtypes with respect to progression of liver disease
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) shows substantial nucleotide sequence diversity distributed throughout the viral genome, with many variants showing only 68-79% overall sequence homology. This has led to problems in diagnosis of HCV using commercial immunoassays. Based on clustering of homologous sequences,
