In this study we have characterised the DNA replicative intermediates of hepatitis B virus and have shown that HBV-DNA replication is asymmetric. This pattern of HBV replication is similar to that reported for the related duck hepatitis virus (DHBV) and suggests the involvement of a similar reverse transcription process in HBV-DNA replication.
在本研究中,我们对乙型肝炎病毒的DNA复制中间体进行了表征,并表明乙肝病毒DNA复制是不对称的。这种乙肝病毒复制模式与相关鸭肝炎病毒(DHBV)报道的模式相似,提示类似的逆转录过程参与了乙肝病毒DNA复制。
