An Arginine-Rich Motif in the ORF2 Capsid Protein Regulates the Hepatitis E Virus Lifecycle and Interactions with the Host Cell

2021-05-26

Abstract excerpt

Hepatitis E virus (HEV) infection is the most common cause of acute viral hepatitis worldwide. Hepatitis E is usually asymptomatic and self-limiting but it can become chronic in immunocompromised patients and is associated with increased fulminant hepatic failure and mortality rates in pregnant women.
