  • METHOD FOR SCREENING AN INHIBITORY AGENT OF HBV PROLIFERATION BY USING THE INTERACTION BETWEEN HBV CAPSID AND SURFACE PROTEINS BASED ON CELLULAR IMAGING
    Publication number: 20100316989
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for screening an inhibitory agent of HBV proliferation by measuring the interaction (binding strength) between capsid protein and surface protein, necessary for the proliferation of HBV, by using cellular imaging, more precisely a method for measuring changes on cellular imaging caused by the interaction between a fusion protein containing PreS domain of HBV surface protein and PH (Pleckstrin homology) domain sequence and a fusion protein containing capsid protein and fluorescence protein (GFP) interacting with the said fusion protein. The method of the present invention detecting the interaction between proteins necessary for HBV proliferation at cellular level can be effectively used for the screening of a novel inhibitory agent of HBV proliferation at cellular level.
