Modeling HBV infection and therapy in immunodeficient NOD-Rag1-/-IL2RgammaC-null (NRG) fumarylacetoacetate hydrolase (FAH) knockout mice with human chimeric liver
- Besides human, only a few species have been reported to be permissive for Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection(1-3). Human liver chimeric mouse models have... [Read more]

Hepatitis B Virus Polymerase Epsilon RNA Binding Assays
- HBV polymerase activity is assayed by measuring its ability to bind viral RNA at a secondary-structure motif, the epsilon (e) stem-loop structure.
24 May, 2019
In Vitro Hepatitis B Virus Polymerase Priming Assay
- HBV polymerase activity is assayed by measuring the first step in DNA synthesis, protein priming, wherein the polymerase becomes nucleotide-labelled.[Read more]
