Distribution of the integration sites in the HBV genome and human chromosomes represented by Circos plots of the PLC/PRF/5 genome and the HepG2.2.15 genome. HBV DNA integration was analyzed using the G-NaVI method in the genome of PLC/PRF/5 cells and HepG2.2.15 cells. A common HBV integration site was not detected. Integration sites were not detected in exonic regions of the DNA from cell lines (Venn diagrams). The HBV genes (PreC, Precore; C, Core; PreS, Presurface; S, Surface; X, X) and the 24 human chromosomes are shown.
