The hepatitis C virus, or HCV, causes a chronic liver infection that can lead to permanent liver scarring and, in dire cases, cancer. It affects around 71 million people worldwide and causes ...

In the hepatitis C virus, the structure is different, ... The hepatitis C virus envelope protein complex is a dimer of heterodimers. Nature, 2024; DOI: 10.1038/s41586-024-07783-5; ...

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) gains entry into host cells via envelope glycoproteins E1 and E2. Here, El Omari et al.present the crystal structure of the N terminus of the E1 ectodomain of HCV and show ...

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is the main cause of chronic hepatitis worldwide. Chronic hepatitis ultimately results in the development of hepatocellular carcinoma1,2 (HCC). However, the mechanism of ...

Scientists are pioneering the use of machine-learning artificial intelligence software to investigate viruses, revealing never-before-seen viral mechanisms which yield immediate fundamental ...

The nonstructural 5B (NS5B) protein is the catalytic core of the hepatitis C virus replication machinery. The RNA-dependent RNA polymerase activity of NS5B supports a staggering rate of viral ...

Researchers from Osaka University unpicked how hepatitis C virus (HCV) and human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) evade the immune system to cause chronic infection. By studying interactions of the HCV core ...

By discovering a trick the hepatitis C virus uses to evade the immune system, scientists have identified a new antiviral defense system that could be used to treat many virus infections, according ...
