Abstract excerpt
Recent genetic studies suggested that viral nonstructural (NS) proteins play important roles in morphogenesis of flaviviruses, particularly hepatitis C virus (HCV). Adaptive and compensatory mutations occurring in different NS proteins were demonstrated to promote HCV production in cell culture. However, the underlying molecular mechanism of NS proteins in HCV morphogenesis is poorly understood. We have isolated...
