TT virus (TTV) was found in 1997 from a hepatitis patient without virus markers. However,
the real impact of TTV on liver diseases remains uncertain to date. Due to the lack of suitable …

Infection with TT virus (Torque teno virus, TTV), a small, nonenveloped virus with a circular,
single-stranded DNA genome classified in the floating genus Anellovirus, is not restricted to …

Since 1997, groups of novel nonenveloped DNA viruses with a circular, single-stranded
(negative sense) DNA genome of 3.6–3.9 kb, 3.2 kb, or 2.8–2.9 kb in size have been …

Eleven years ago the circular DNA of a novel single-stranded virus has been cloned and
partially characterized by Nishizawa and Okamoto and their colleagues. According to the …

A novel TT virus (TTV)-like DNA sequence was detected in the serum of a patient (PM) with
acute non-A–E hepatitis. The full-length genome sequence, referred to here as PM virus …

Ten years after the identification of the first partial sequences of Torque teno virus (TTV),
more than 200 full-length related genomes have been characterized in humans and in …

The sequence data (H. Okamoto et al., Hepatol. Res. 10: 1–16, 1998) of a newly discovered
single-stranded DNA virus, TT virus (TTV), showed that it did not have the terminal structure …

TT virus (TTV) is a newly identified human DNA virus of the family Circoviridae. Its genome
consists of six putative open reading frames (ORFs). TTV was isolated originally from a …

SUMMARY TT virus (TTV) was first described in 1997 by representational difference
analysis of sera from non-A to non-G posttransfusion hepatitis patients and hence …

ABSTRACT TT virus (TTV) is an unenveloped, circular, and single-stranded DNA virus
commonly infecting human beings worldwide. TTV DNAs in paired serum and liver tissues …
