Schematic representation of truncated HBx. Wild type HBx with 154 amino acids in length is schematically shown at the top. HBxStop was created by altering the eighth codon of HBx to an UAA stop codon. Bottom two bars representing the truncated mutant HBxΔN and HBxΔC, with deletions in HBx aa 1 to 50 and 51 to 154, respectively.
