USP4 stabilizes CHAF1B by limiting K48‐linked ubiquitination. Stabilized CHAF1B supports UHRF1‐associated K63‐linked SETDB1 ubiquitination and cytoplasmic redistribution, whereas CHAF1B loss favors VHL‐dependent K11‐associated degradative ubiquitination and proteasomal loss of SETDB1.

Identification of hepatitis a virus mimotopes by phage display, antigenicity and immunogenicity [PDF]
A phage-displayed peptide approach was used to identify ligands mimicking antigenic determinants of hepatitis A virus (HAV) for the first time. Bacteriophages displaying HAV mimotopes were isolated from a phage-display peptide library by affinity ...

Hepatitis B virus x protein coding sequence variation in chronically infected patient
Background and Objective: Chronic infection with Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is one of the main causes of cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The pathogenicity of the virus is determined by the multi-functional protein x (HBx).

Hepatitis B virus induces hypoxia-inducible factor-2α expression through hepatitis B virus X protein
A growing number of studies suggest that the hepatitis B virus X protein (HBx) enhances the protein stability of the hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α). However, the relationship between hepatitis B virus (HBV), HBx and hypoxia-inducible factor-2α (HIF-2α) has not yet been fully elucidated.

Vaccination promotes cellular infiltration into primary lesions and effectively inhibits T. pallidum dissemination to distal organs. Notably, transfer of lesion tissue from immunized animals fails to establish infection in naive recipients, confirming specific protective immunity.

Molecular characterization of hepatitis B virus X gene in chronic hepatitis B patients
Background HBV-X protein is associated with the pathogenesis of HBV related diseases, specially in hepatocellular carcinomas of chronic patients. Genetic variability of the X gene includes genotypic specific variations and mutations emerging during ...

Global re‐wiring of p53 transcription regulation by the hepatitis B virus X protein
Background The tumour suppressor p53 is a central player in transcription regulation and cell fate determination. By interacting with p53 and altering its sequence‐specific binding to the response elements, the hepatitis B virus X protein (HBx) was ...
