Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Identify hepatitis C virus (HCV) sequences in E1 and E2 protein binding to HepG2. METHODS: Synthetic 20-mer long, ten-residue overlapped peptides, from E1 and E2 proteins, were tested in HepG2 or Raji cell-binding assays. Affinity constants, binding site number per cell and Hill coefficients were determined by saturation assay for high activity binding peptides (HABPs). Receptors for HepG2 cell...
