Transmission of hepatitis C virus by anti-HCV-negative blood transfusion. Case report.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The amino acid substitutions caused by ABO gene variants are usually predicted to impact the glycosyltransferase function. Here, the effect of an amino acid substitution in the vicinity of the catalytic active region of the B-glycosyltransferase was explored in vitro and in silico study, which is important f...
