A genome-wide gain-of-function screen identifies CDKN2C as a HBV host factor

Here the authors perform a gain-of-function screen and identify CDKN2C as a host factor for HBV replication, inducing cell cycle arrest and expression of HBV transcription enhancers. CDKN2C expression correlates with disease progression suggesting a potential role in HBV-induced liver disease.
