In patients infected with the hepatitis C virus (HCV), a heterogeneous population of viruses, so-called quasispecies exists in vivo. The hypervariable regions (HVR) within the second envelope gene (HCV-E2) show particularly highly intratypic variability and are considered to be the target of neutral

## Abstract Investigation of hepatitis A virus (HAV) outbreaks often implies nucleotide sequence analysis. As an alternative method for the identification of related strains, single strand conformation polymorphism method (SSCP) was compared to sequence analysis. Twentyβthree strains from sporadic
The fragile X syndrome is due to an expansion of the CGG trinucleotide repeat in the FMR1 gene and hypermethylation of its 5 upstream CpG island in about 95% of the cases. The remaining 5% of cases correspond to other molecular alterations in FMR1 gene such as partial or complete deletions, or point
