Developmental regulation of hepatitis B virus biosynthesis by hepatocyte nuclear factor 4alpha.
The host cellular factors that promote persistent viral infections in vivo are, in general, poorly understood. Utilizing the hepatitis B virus (HBV) transgenic mouse model of chronic infection, we demonstrate that the nuclear receptor, hepatocyte nuclear factor 4alpha (HNF4alpha, NR2A1), is essentia...
