## Abstract A speciesโspecific receptor for polymerized human albumin (PHALB) has been reported on hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg)โcarrying particles. Our previous observations that human Clq also binds PHALB in a speciesโrestricted manner led us to investigate the possibility that HBsAgโassoci
## Abstract The recombinant human monoclonal antibody (MAb) against hepatitis B virus (HBV) surface antigen (HBsAg) was expressed in tobacco suspension cultures. The parental CL4MAb was produced by the EpsteinโBarr virus (EBV) transformed human cell line TAPC301โCL4. The CL4MAb cDNA was introduced
## Abstract There is considerable evidence that substances other than immunoglobulins can bind human Clq. Utilizing purified human Clq immobilized on polystyrene beads, we have demonstrated that polymerized human albumin (PHALBโ^125^I) binds to human Clq in a direct binding assay. This interaction
Receptors for polymerised human albumin are present on the pre-S sequence of the envelope protein of HBV and on the hepatocyte membrane and are thought to be involved in uptake of the virus by hepatocytes. Using a solid phase radioimmunoassay we demonstrate binding of HBsAg to polymerised human seru
Fusion of peptide epitopes to the core antigen (HBcAg) of hepatitis B virus (HBV) enhances their immunogenicity, both quantitatively and qualitatively. In a number of vaccine-induced mutants of HBV, glycine145 of the surface antigen S polypeptide (HBsAg) has been replaced by arginine, resulting in l
