Woodchuck hepatitis virus X protein is required for viral infection in vivo.

Journal of virology - 1 Mar 1994

Zoulim F, Saputelli J, Seeger C

Abstract excerpt

The X gene of the mammalian hepadnaviruses is believed to encode a protein of 17 kDa which has been shown to transactivate a wide range of viral and cellular promoters. The necessity for X gene expression during the viral life cycle in vivo has recently been suggested (H.-S. Chen, S. Kaneko, R. Girones, R. W. Anderson, W. E. Hornbuckle, B. C. Tennant, P. J. Cote, J. L. Gerin, R. H. Purcell, and R. H. Miller, J....
