Structural insights into the HBV receptor and bile acid transporter NTCP.
Nature 20220517 7916
Around 250 million people are infected with hepatitis B virus (HBV) worldwide<sup>1</sup>, and 15 million may also carry the satellite virus hepatitis D virus (HDV), which confers even greater risk of severe liver disease<sup>2</sup>. The HBV receptor has been identified as sodium taurocholate co-transporting polypeptide (NTCP), which interacts directly with the first 48 amino acid residues of the N-myristoylated N-terminal preS1 domain of the viral large protein<sup>3</sup>. Despite the pressin ...[more]
