Infectivity Determinants of the Hepatitis B Virus Pre-S Domain Are Confined to the N-Terminal 75 Amino Acid Residues

22 Mar 2007

Abstract excerpt

The N-terminal pre-S domain of the large hepatitis B virus (HBV) envelope protein plays a pivotal role at the initial step of the viral entry pathway. In the present study, the entire pre-S domain was mapped for infectivity determinants, following a reverse-genetics approach and using in vitro infection assays with hepatitis delta virus (HDV) or HBV particles. The results demonstrate that lesions created within...
