Popis: | The reactivity of 100 sera taken from patients with different blood diseases and donors with respect to synthesized peptides in the variable area of protein NS4 of hepatitis C virus was studied. The presence of type-specific antibodies in the blood sera of patients with hepatitis C was shown. Two antigenic determinant corresponding to 1683-1705 and 1711-1732 amino acid residues in the protein area under study were detected. In hematological patients undergoing frequent blood transfusions mixed infection with different types of hepatitis C virus was registered; these types could be reliably determined with the use of synthetic peptides. The serotype determined with the use of peptides corresponded to the type of the circulating virus. |
