Abstract

There is no reliable cure for chronic Hepatitis B Virus (HBV). In this issue of Structure, Eren etal. (2018) show how antibody-derived proteins bind different forms of the HBV capsid protein, blocking assembly. This interaction may also affect downstream signaling. These antibody-derived molecules mark a new strategy that may ultimately contribute to a cure.
