## Abstract HCVc 120 is a truncated protein from the hepatitis C virus (HCV) core protein that interacts with itself to form nucleocapsid‐like particles. We present here the infrared and Raman spectra of oligomeric HCVc 120 protein in order to obtain insights into its secondary structure as well as
We have cloned the whole structural region of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) genome and transiently expressed the nucleocapsid protein in animal cells. Since the nucleotide sequences of this region of the HCV genome has been shown to be highly conserved among different HCV isolates, the assay detecting
## BACKGROUND. Recently, it has been reported that hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA is detected in cancerous liver tissues in some hepatitis B surface antigen negative chronic hepatitis C patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the significance of HBV DNA detected in such cases remains u
DNA immunization has been used to induce either humoral or cellular immune responses against many antigens, including hepatitis C virus (HCV). In addition, DNA immunizations can be enhanced or modulated at the nucleotide level. Genetic immunizations were examined in BALB/c mice through the use of pl
