Genome-wide copy number variation analysis of hepatitis B infection in a Japanese population
Hepatitis B: Gene copy numbers associated with risk of infection The risk of contracting the hepatitis B virus may be linked to the number of copies of certain genes in an individual’s genome. A Japanese team led by Masataka Kikuchi, Osaka University, and Akihiro Nakaya, University of Tokyo, looked...
