Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
Current treatments of chronic hepatitis B are rarely curative. Capsid assembly modulators (CAMs) target capsid formation by the hepatitis B virus (HBV) core protein. Class A CAMs (CAM-A) induce abnormal core protein assembly but how they affect core protein dynamics and inhibit HBV replication is only partially understood.
