Abstract excerpt
AIM: To investigate the role of non-structural open reading frame 1 "Y-domain" sequences in the hepatitis E virus (HEV) life cycle. METHODS: Sequences of human HEV Y-domain (amino acid sequences 216-442) and closely-related viruses were analyzed in silico. Site-directed mutagenesis of the Y-domain (HEV SAR55) was carried out and studied in the replicon-baculovirus-hepatoma cell model. In vitro transcribed mRNA...
