Figure 1 Clinical course of the patient infected with the genotype H strain.
The dotted line indicates the detection limit of HBV-DNA (2.1 log copy/mL); the titer of the HBV-DNA was below the lower limit at 18 mo. HBsAg: Hepatitis B surface antigen; Anti-HBs: Antibody to hepatitis B surface antigen; ALT: Alanine aminotransferase; HBV: Hepatitis B virus.
Figure 2 A phylogenetic trees constructed using the neighbor-joining method with the full hepatitis B virus genome sequence of the isolated and reference strains.
The strain isolated in this case (B-MHJ9014) is shown in bold. The horizontal bar indicates the number of nucleotide substitutions per site. The reference sequences are shown with the DDBJ/EMBL/GenBank accession numbers. The HBV genotypes are indicated on each branch. The bootstrap values (> 80%) are indicated at the nodes as a percentage of the data obtained from 1000 resamplings. HBV: Hepatitis B virus.
