The hepatitis B virus (HBV) core protein has been found in the nucleus, the cytoplasm, or both of HBV-infected hepatocytes. nuclear localization of the HBV core protein is negatively regulated by phosphorylation during the cell cycle.
HepatitisVirus C NS3 Protease Inhibitor 2 is a peptide inhibitor derived from a product that targets the NS3 protease of the hepatitis C virus (HCV). Its inhibitory activity against the NS3 protease is characterized by a Ki value of 41 nM.
HBcAg (core antigen) is a hepatitis B viral protein. It is an indicator of active viral replication; this means the person infected with Hepatitis B can likely transmit the virus on to another person.
