• Molecular Biology of Hepatitis B Virus Infection (2015, positive): “Besides determining hepatotropism, preS1 binding to NTCP also controls species specificity (Ni et al., 2014; Yan et al., 2013; Zhong et al., 2013), consistent with observations of PreS function made earlier with avihepadnaviruses (Ishikawa and Ganem, 1995).”
