Immunological and molecular epidemiological characteristics of acute and fulminant viral hepatitis A.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The ESCRT (endosomal sorting complex required for transport) machinery functions to sort cellular receptors into the lumen of the multivesicular body (MVB) prior to lysosomal degradation. ESCRT components can also be recruited by enveloped viruses to sites of viral assembly where they have been proposed to m...
