Variability and conservation in hepatitis B virus core protein.

BMC microbiology - 27 May 2005

Chain Benjamin M, Myers Richard

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Hepatitis B core protein (HBVc) has been extensively studied from both a structural and immunological point of view, but the evolutionary forces driving sequence variation within core are incompletely understood. RESULTS: In this study, the observed variation in HBVc protein sequence has been examined in a collection of a large number of HBVc protein sequences from public sequence repositories. An...
