Research Abstract |
The most serious problem for patients with chronic hepatitis B who are administered with nucleotide analogues is the emergence of a resistant mutant virus and the occurrence of breakthrough hepatitis. Since hepatitis virus exists in a mixed population with multiple mutant strains, it has been difficult to measure each mutant strain accurately so far. In this study, a new sensitive method for quantification of a single-base mutant within the mixed population has been developed. This assay raised the possibility to have versatility as a sensitive method for the quantification of a single nucleotide mutation in a heterogeneous population.
