RNA Aptamers as Molecular Tools to Study the Functionality of the Hepatitis C Virus CRE Region
Background: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) contains a (+) ssRNA genome with highly conserved structural, functional RNA domains, many of them with unknown roles for the consecution of the viral cycle. Such genomic domains are candidate therapeutic targets. This study reports the functional characterization...
