Cytotoxicity
Binding Target core antigen (HBcAg)(Viral assembly)
Mechanism During HBV morphogenesis, both the PreS and S domains of L-HBsAg form docking sites for the viral nucleocapsids. Thus, a compound that disrupts the interaction between the L-HBsAg and nucleocapsids could serve as a therapeutic agent against the virus based upon inhibition of morphogenesis. Peptide inhibits the association of L-HBsAg with core antigen (HBcAg).
