A hepatocellular carcinoma cell line, HCC36, was established from an adult HBV carrier in Taiwan. From Southern blot analysis, there were at least four sites of integration of HBV DNA, and no viral replicative intermediates were detected. A genomic library was constructed from HCC36 DNA, and two phage clones, designated lambda 36A and lambda 36B, were shown to contain HBV DNA and flanking cellular sequences. In lambda 36A, HBV DNA sequences were quite conserved, and 7.4% base variation was detected. The viral sequences in lambda 36A and lambda 36B differed in only four bases, in addition to the microdeletion and -insertion observed in lambda 36B. The flanking cellular sequences identified in lambda 36A were human Alu sequences and in lambda 36B satellite sequences.
