Title Hepatitis B virus maturation is affected by the incorporation of core proteins having a C-terminal substitution of arginine or lysine stretches.
Author Hui EK,Chen KL,Lo SJ
Evidence In this study, two hepatitis B virus (HBV) core mutants (C144Arg and C144Lys) in which the C-terminal SPRRR (Ser-Pro-Arg-Arg-Arg) motif was replaced by a stretch of arginine or lysine residues were generated to test their role in pregenome encapsidation and virus maturation.
