CC   -!- MISCELLANEOUS: This virus has been isolated from patient with fulminant
CC       hepatitis. A genomic mutation in 1896 creates a stop codon at position
CC       28 of HBeAg, without affecting capsid open reading frame. The HBeAg
CC       negative variants of HBV are associated with fulminant hepatitis, but
CC       can also be found in patients with persistent infection and chronic
CC       hepatitis.
