Hepatitis C virus
Hepatitis C is a virus transmitted mainly by the mixing of blood. It infects hepatic cells and ultimately causes liver failure[1].
Viral Structure
It has an outer envelope, which contains two envelope proteins, called E1 and E2. Under the membrane there is a core protein which binds with the viral genome to form a nucleoplastid. This contains single-stranded RNA which encodes 11 proteins[2].
