Expression of Hepatitis C Virus Core and E2 antigenic recombinant proteins and their use for development of diagnostic assays

Background: Early diagnosis of HCV infection is based on detection of antibodies against HCV proteins using recombinant viral antigens. The present study was designed to select, clone and express the antigenic regions of Core and E2 genes from local HCV-3a genotype and to utilize the antigenic recom...
