Abstract excerpt

We have characterized a conformational epitope on capsids of hepatitis B virus (HBV) by cryo-electron microscopy and three-dimensional image reconstruction of Fab-labeled capsids to approximately 10-A resolution, combined with molecular modeling. The epitope straddles the interface between two adjacent subunits and is discontinuous, consisting of five peptides-two on one subunit and three on its neighbor....
