## 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
## Abstract Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is characterized by persistence of liver inflammation that often leads to endβstage liver disease, although the mechanisms are not fully understood. A hyperβvariable region (HVR) has been reported in the E2/NS1 region of the HCV genome, in which strikin
