## Abstract The nonstructural 5B (NS5B) protein of hepatitis C virus possesses RNA‐dependent RNA polymerase activity and plays an essential role in viral replication. The mutations in NS5B were determined and the correlation with viral load and response to interferon (IFN) were assessed. The entire
