Prototype HCV species and suggested species within the genus Hepacivirus of the Flaviviridae family of viruses and their natural and experimental hosts. aThe p13 protein of GBV-B might be processed into a p7 protein (equivalent to HCV p7) and a p6 protein. The p6 protein is not required for in vivo infectivity (8). bThe tamarin from which GBV-B was isolated had been inoculated with the GB-agent (2). cPersistent infection has been reported with recombinant GBV-B (8).
