Hepatitis C virus NS3/4A protease inhibits complement activation by cleaving complement component 4.
BackgroundIt has been hypothesized that persistent hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is mediated in part by viral proteins that abrogate the host immune response, including the complement system, but the precise mechanisms are not well understood.
