     A postdoctoral position is available immediately to study
the molecular biology of hepatitis B virus. Projects include:
gene regulation, protein transport and oncogenesis. The
followings are a few recent publications from this laboratory:

 1. Yeh et al. (1990) The arginine-rich domain of hepatitis B
    virus precore and core proteins contains signal for nuclear
    transport. J. Virol. 64: 6141-6147.

 2. Guo et al. (1991) Leaky transcription termination produces
    larger and smaller than genome size hepatitis B virus X gene
    transcripts. Virol. 181: 630-636.

 3. Yeh & Ou. (1991) Phosphorylation of hepatitis B virus precore
    and core proteins. J. Virol. 65: 2327-2331.

 4. Seto et al. (1988) Trans-activation of the human
    immunodeficiency virus long terminal repeat by the hepatitis
    B virus X protein. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 85: 8286-8290.
