Genetic variability in the precore and core promoter regions of hepatitis B virus strains in Karachi

Genetic variability in the precore and core promoter regions of hepatitis B virus strains in Karachi

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Hepatitis B virus (HBV) genotypes have distinct geographic distribution. Moreover, much genetic variability has been described in the precore (PC) and basal core promoter (BCP) regions of the HBV genome. The local prevalence of HBV g...
