abstract：:Exacerbations of chronic hepatitis B have been associated with accumulation of mutations in the HBV core gene, with amino acid (aa) substitutions clustering between aa 50 and 69. This region of the nucleocapsid protein is known as an immunodominant epitope for CD4+ T-lymphocytes, however the impact of these mutations ...
