Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND/AIMS: The hepatocellular transport pathways and cellular proteins utilized during the packaging and secretion of hepatitis B virus are poorly understood. In this study, we tested if the large GTPase dynamin, a protein involved in vesicle formation and secretion at the trans-Golgi network in hepatocytes, is also used by hepatitis B virus (HBV) in secreting viral proteins. METHODS: Using HepG2.2.15 cells...
