Expression of hepatitis C virus (HCV) structural proteins in trans facilitates encapsidation and transmission of HCV subgenomic RNA

A characteristic of many positive-strand RNA viruses is that, whilst replication of the viral genome is dependent on the expression of the majority of non-structural proteins in cis, virus particle formation can occur when most or all of the structural proteins are co-expressed in trans.
