Strosberg, TSRI External Assay ID: HCVCORE_INH_HTRF_1536_3XIC50 Name: TR-FRET-based biochemical high-throughput dose response assay to identify inhibitors of Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) core protein dimerization. Description: The Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) is a major cause of liver failure and hepatocellular cancer, with about 170 million people infected worldwide (1). The HCV has a small RNA genome that is directly translated by the infected host cell into a single precursor polyprotein that is processed by enzymatic cleavage into 10 proteins of diverse function. The most N-terminal 21kDa protein of this HCV polyprotein is the HCV core (C) protein, which is a highly basic, RNA-binding st |
