Zusammenfassung

The interference with virus entry by peptides representing functional domains of viral envelope proteins is a key approach to the elucidation of entry mechanisms into respective host cells and for providing potential future antiviral therapies. Recently this approach lead to the identification of carboxypeptidase D as one receptor component of avian hepadnaviruses. However, due to the lack of an appropriate in vitro infection system this kind of analysis was not yet practicable for HBV. In our study, we took advantage of the newly-developed HBV-infectable cell line HepaRG (Gripon et al., PNAS, 99(24), 15655–1566…
