Abstract

Abstract

Protein ubiquitination is widely observed in cells and is a modification after protein translation. Hepatitis B virus (HBV) and ubiquitination of related proteins have attracted more and more attention. This article reviews HBV and the ubiquitination of related proteins, so as to provide a reference for further research on the regulation of HBV replication and the ubiquitination of related proteins, as well as new ideas and methods for curing chronic HBV infection.
