Abstract excerpt
Hepatitis C virus NS5A has three structural domains, is required for RNA replication and virion assembly, and exists in hypo- and hyperphosphorylated forms. Accumulated data suggest that phosphorylation is involved in modulating NS5A functions. We performed a mutational analysis of highly conserved serine residues in the linker region between domains I and II of genotype 2a JFH1 NS5A. As with genotype 1b Con1...
