Hepatitis B virus X protein activates proteasomal activator 28 gamma expression via upregulation of p53 levels to stimulate virus replication
3 Apr 2018
Abstract excerpt
Proteasomal activator gamma (PA28γ), frequently overexpressed in hepatocellular carcinoma, is believed to play important roles in tumourigenesis. However, the underlying mechanism of PA28γ overexpression and its possible roles in hepatitis B virus (HBV) replication are largely unknown. In the present study, we found that hepatitis B virus X protein (HBx) activates PA28γ expression by upregulating p53 levels in...
