Abstract excerpt
The dynamics involved in the interaction between hepatitis C virus nonstructural protein 3 (NS3) C-terminal helicase and its nucleic acid substrate have been the subject of interest for some time given the key role of this enzyme in viral replication. Here, we employed fluorescence-based techniques and focused on events that precede the unwinding process. Both ensemble Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) and...
