Hepatitis B virus gene function: the precore region targets the core antigen to cellular membranes and causes the secretion of the e antigen.

The core gene of the hepatitis B virus genome contains two conserved in-phase initiation codons separated by about 90 nucleotides. This region ("the precore region") encodes largely hydrophobic amino acids. We have expressed the coding sequence of the core gene with or without the precore...
