Study on transactivation mechanism Hepatitis C Virus NS5A protein
C型肝炎是造成非A非B型肝炎的主要原因,持續慢性C型肝炎感染可能導致肝癌。C型肝炎的NS5A詳細功能仍未被完全瞭解,在本研究中我們希望能進一步瞭解NS5A在肝癌演變過程中所扮演的角色。已知NS5A蛋白具有一段可能有功能的核轉位訊號(nuclear localization signal ; NLS),此蛋白之某一區段並具有活化轉錄能力。於是我們從肝癌病人血清中取得HCV基因組,並選取產生NS5A蛋白的基因序列區段來探討轉錄活化之機轉。使用一個NS5A-HCC及二個NS5A突變株質體送到Huh-7細胞表現。

Structural studies on hepatitis C virus (HCV) NS5A and its molecular interaction with CypA
Hepatitis C virus infection is a worldwide issue and its NS5A protein interacts with host Cyclophilin A to play a crucial role in viral replication. To date, there is limited structural information for the intrinsically disordered NS5A protein. Here, low-

The Role of NS5A in Chronic HCV Infection
Hepatitis C is a viral disease that affects the liver cells of the infected individual, resulting in inflammation and frequent liver failure. Currently 150-200 million people worldwide are infected with Hepatitis C and 85% of these incidences have ...
