## BACKGROUND. Many patients with hepatocellular carcinoma are positive for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) or antibodies to hepatitis C virus (anti-HCV). Recently, transfusion-transmitted virus (TTV) DNA was identified in the serum of patients with non-B, non-C posttransfusion hepatitis. In
We have cloned the whole structural region of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) genome and transiently expressed the nucleocapsid protein in animal cells. Since the nucleotide sequences of this region of the HCV genome has been shown to be highly conserved among different HCV isolates, the assay detecting
