Complete Genome Sequences of Hepatitis B Virus from North India Using Ion Torrent
نویسندگان
چکیده
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is among the most common causes of liver cirrhosis. We report the full-genome sequences of seven molecular clones of HBV genotype A, amplified from an HBV-infected North Indian patient. This is probably the first report of the HBV genome sequencing using Ion Torrent from India.

Cloning and sequence analysis of VP1, VP2 and VP3 genes of Indian chicken anemia virus
Chicken anemia virus was detected by PCR in tissue samples collected from poultry flocks in Gujarat,India. The VP1, VP2 and VP3 gene sequences of CAV from Anand, Gujarat were obtained after cloning thePCR products in pDrive cloning vector. Nucleotide sequence alignment with other CAV sequencesdemonstrated overall identity of 95-98.8%, 98.8-99.8% and 98.8-100% for VP1, VP2 and VP3 regions,respec...
متن کاملAssociation between Hepatitis B Virus Infection Outcome and HLA-A and DRB1 Genotyping in North Part of Iran
Background and Objective: The outcome of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection may be influenced by host factors like Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA). We have investigated HLA-A and DRB1 alleles in patients with persistent hepatitis B infection compared to subjects who had spontaneously recovered from HBV infection. To complete the findings of this study we performed another survey in certain HLA ...

Infectious Pancreatic Necrosis Virus (IPNV) is the causal agent of a highly contagious disease that affects many species of fish and shellfish. This virus causes economically important diseases of farmed rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss, in Iran which is often associated with the transmission of pathogens from European resources. In this study, moribund rainbow trout fry were collected during...
