What do you mean by HBV and LBV protein?

HBV (High Biological Value) Proteins contain all the essential
amino acids in the correct porportions. Proteins of HBV are
ususally of animal origin. One exeption is soya beans which has HBV
proteins. LBV (Low Biological Value) Proteins are foods that lack
one or more essential amino acids. LBV proteins are found mainly in
plant food. One exeption is gelatine which is obtained from an
animal source. The two main meat groups (white meat and red meat)
are split between HBV and LBV as white meats such as chicken fit
better into the HBV range where as lamb and beef have a tendancy to
lack in certain amino acids making them LBV (meats). although still
HBV red meats are less good for you due to there higher probortion
of saturated fats.

No Hepatitis virus is not a retrovirus. HBV or HCV belong to the
family called Hepadnaviridae, has DNA as their

and it has a RNA phase during its replication. Like retrovirus HBV
and HCV has reverse transriptase enzyme that catalyse the
formation of DNA from RNA.
