Molecular insights into Spindlin1-HBx interplay and its impact on HBV transcription from cccDNA minichromosome
Abstract Molecular interplay between host epigenetic factors and viral proteins constitutes an intriguing mechanism for sustaining hepatitis B virus (HBV) life cycle and its chronic infection. HBV encodes a regulatory protein, HBx, which activates transcription and replication of HBV genome organize...
