The hepatitis C virus E1 glycoprotein undergoes productive folding but accelerated degradation when expressed as an individual subunit in CHO cells.
Hepatitis C Virus E1E2 heterodimers are components of the viral spike. Although there is a general agreement on the necessity of the co-expression of both E1 and E2 on a single coding unit for their productive folding and assembly, in a previous study using an in vitro system we obtained strong indi...
