Sensitive reverse transcription-digital droplet PCR-based discrimination of hepatitis delta virus RNAs reveals differential effects of interferon-α on viral RNA species

Hepatitis delta virus (HDV) replication relies on the production of distinct viral RNA species, including genomic (HDV-G), antigenomic (HDV-AG) and mRNAs (HDV mRNAs), which differ in abundance and function. However, the lack of sensitive and quantitative approaches allowing their...
