Complete Genome Sequences of Hepatitis B Virus from North India Using Ion Torrent.

ABSTRACT: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is among the most common causes of liver cirrhosis. We report the full-genome sequences of seven molecular clones of HBV genotype A, amplified from an HBV-infected North Indian patient. This is probably the first report of the HBV genome sequencing using Ion Torrent from India.
