Genotypic testing based on subtype-specific amplification and population Sanger sequencing for two nonstructural (NS) protein-coding regions, the NS3/4A protease and the NS5B polymerase, of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) genome is described here. The protocols include the molecular steps for RNA extraction, one-step RT-PCR followed by inner PCR and population Sanger sequencing, to obtain the sequence information of the target regions from the clinical isolates of HCV subtypes 1a and 1b, which can be used to detect any sequence change in the viral genome as for example caused by the development of drug resistance in these two common viral targets.
