Complementation is a naturally occurring genetic mechanism that has been studied for a number of plus-strand RNA viruses. Although trans-complementation is well documented for Flaviviridae family viruses, the first such system for hepatitis C virus (HCV) was only described in 2005. Since then, the development of a number of HCV trans-complementation models has improved our knowledge of HCV protein functions and interactions, genome replication and viral particle assembly. These models have also ...[more]
