Abstract excerpt
This study examined the anti-hepatitis B virus (HBV) effect of wild-type (WT) vacuolar protein sorting 4B (VPS4B) and its dominant negative (DN) mutant VPS4B-K180Q in vivo in order to further explore the relationship between HBV and the host cellular factor VPS4. VPS4B gene was amplified from Huh7 cells by RT-PCR and cloned into the eukaryotic expression vector pXF3H. Then, the VPS4B plasmid and the VPS4B-K180Q...
