The kinesin KIF4 mediates HBV/HDV entry through regulation of surface NTCP localization and can be targeted by RXR agonists in vitro.

S. A. Gad, M. Sugiyama, M. Tsuge, K. Wakae, K. Fukano, M. Oshima, C. Sureau, N. Watanabe, T. Kato, A. Murayama, Y. Li, I. Shoji, K. Shimotohno, K. Chayama, M. Muramatsu, , H. H. Aly

This paper identifies KIF4 as a critical regulator of NTCP surface localization for HBV/HDV entry and shows RXR agonists can suppress KIF4 to inhibit viral infection.

A Single Adaptive Mutation in Sodium Taurocholate Cotransporting Polypeptide Induced by Hepadnaviruses Determines Virus Species-specificity

J. S. Takeuchi, K. Fukano, M. Iwamoto, S. Tsukuda, R. Suzuki, H. Aizaki, M. Muramatsu, T. Wakita, C. Sureau, K. Watashi

The paper shows a single mutation in the NTCP receptor determines HBV infection specificity by showing how virus-induced positive selection at aa 158 alters host susceptibility.
