Structure Of Hepatitis B Mapped By Spraying Virus Date: July 29, 2008 Source: Utrecht University Summary: Using a newly developed method, Utrecht University researchers have mapped the structure ...
The capsid of the hepatitis B virus has a very unique structure. It is composed of many monomers which interact to provide flexibility to its structure and function. Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is a ...
The capsid shell of infectious hepatitis B virus (HBV) is composed of 240 copies of a single protein called HBV core antigen (HBc). An atomic model of a core assembled from truncated HBc was ...
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is associated with hepatitis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Here, the authors show that HBV promotes HCC formation only in response to environmental ...
Published in the journal Nature, these results reveal the 3D structure of NTCP and two architectures it can adopt. One may be helpful in the development of therapeutic tools against hepatitis ...
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is known to be associated with the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but how and why ...
