Cyclophilin A-independent recruitment of NS5A and NS5B into hepatitis C virus replication complexes
27 Jan 2010
Abstract excerpt
The mechanisms by which cyclophilin A (CypA) governs hepatitis C virus (HCV) replication remain unknown. Since CypA binds two essential components of the HCV replication complex (RC)--the polymerase NS5B and the phosphoprotein NS5A--we asked in this study whether CypA regulates their RC association. We found that CypA, via its isomerase pocket, locates in a protease-resistant compartment similar to that where HCV...
