Monoclonal antibody AP33 defines a broadly neutralizing epitope on the hepatitis C virus E2 envelope glycoprotein (2005)
Journal Article

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) remains a significant threat to the general health of the world's population, and there is a pressing need for the development of new treatments and preventative vaccines. Here, we describe the generation of retrovirus-based p... Read More about Monoclonal antibody AP33 defines a broadly neutralizing epitope on the hepatitis C virus E2 envelope glycoprotein.

Analysis of the binding of hepatitis C virus genotype 1a and 1b E2 glycoproteins to peripheral blood mononuclear cell subsets (2005)
Journal Article

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) binding to hepatocytes is thought to be mediated via interaction of the E2 glycoprotein with (co-)receptors including CD81 and scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI). Here, the expression of CD81 and SR-BI was analysed on p...

Characterization of host-range and cell entry properties of the major genotypes and subtypes of hepatitis C virus (2005)
Journal Article

Because of the lack of a robust cell culture system, relatively little is known about the molecular details of the cell entry mechanism for hepatitis C virus (HCV). Recently, we described infectious HCV pseudo-particles (HCVpp) that were generated by...

Tagged polymerase chain reaction subtractive hybridization for the enrichment of phage display random peptide libraries (2005)
Journal Article

Affinity selection of phage display peptide libraries is routinely used for isolating peptides capable of binding a range of molecules, including antibodies and receptors. This process is most successful when the selecting molecule is relatively pure...
