A recombinant polypeptide

摘要

The present invention relates to a recombinant PT-NANBH polypeptide or recombinant PT-NANBH polypeptides which polypeptide comprises or which polypeptides together comprise (i) at least one antigen from the structural coding region of the viral genome, (ii) at least one antigen from the non-structural coding region of the viral genome; and (iii) at least one further antigen from either the structural or non-structural coding region of the viral genome and which is different from the antigens referred to in (i) and (ii), and the use of the polypeptide in an immuno assay for diagnosis PT-NANBH or in a vaccine for its prevention.
