Title:
HCV-DERIVED POLYPEPTIDES AND USES THEREOF
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2010/106509
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The present invention relates to Hepatitis C virus (HCV)-derived polypeptides and nucleic acid molecules encoding same which advantageously comprises a cd81 -binding region. In this connection, the present invention specifically relates to the use of the polypeptides or nucleic acid molecules in compositions and methods for the prevention, the treatment and the diagnosis of HCV infections.
