Molecular Epidemiology of Cytomegalovirus UL97 and UL54 variants in Taiwan
Background: The antiviral resistance of cytomegalovirus (CMV) infections is associated with mutations in the CMV UL54 and UL97 gene regions and is a serious problem in immunocompromised patients. However, the molecular epidemiology of UL54 and UL97 in Taiwan is unclear. Methods: We conducted a retro...
