[Structural and functional organization of hepatitis C virus genome].
The review gives recent data on the structure of hepatitis C virus genome. Linear RNA comprises one translated and two nontranslated regions: 5'UTR and 3'UTR. Translation of viral RNA gives rise to a single polyprotein precursor that contains structural and nonstructural regions. The structural region comprises one nucleocapsid core-protein and two envelope proteins known as E1 and E2. E2 protein includes two hypervariable regions: HVR1 and HVR2. The nonstructural region consists of 7 proteins: p7 (NS1), NS (metalloproteinase), NS (serine protease/ helicase), NS4A (co-factor protease, co-factor RNA-dependent RNA polymerase), and NS4B, NS5A, NS5B (RNA-dependent RNA polymerase). NS5A includes ISDR (interferon-sensitivity-determining region).
