'''The Delta Antigens'''
A significant difference between viroids and HDV is that, while viroids produce no proteins, HDV produces two proteins called the small and large delta antigens (HDAg-S and HDAg-L, respectively). These two proteins are produced from a single open reading frame. They are identical for 195 amino acids and differ only by the presence of an additional 19 amino acids at the C-terminus of HDAg-L. Despite having 90% identical sequences, these two proteins play diverging roles during the course of an infection. HDAg-S is produced in the early stages of an infection and is required for viral replication. HDAg-L, in contrast, is produced during the later stages of an infection, acts as an inhibitor of viral replication, and is required for assembly of viral particles.
'''Evolution'''
Three genotypes (I-III) were originally described. Genotype I has been isolated in Europe, North America, Africa and some Asia. Genotype II has been found in Japan, Taiwan, and Yakutia (Russia). Genotype III has been found exclusively in South America (Peru, Colombia, and Venezuela). Some genomes from Taiwan and the Okinawa islands have been difficult to type but have been placed in genotype 2. However it is not known that there are at least 8 genotypes of this virus (HDV-1 to HDV-8).<ref name=Celik2011>{{cite journal |author=Celik I, Karataylı E, Cevik E, ''et al.'' |title=Complete genome sequences and phylogenetic analysis of hepatitis delta viruses isolated from nine Turkish patients |journal=Arch.

Biology

The HDV genome is a single, negative stranded, circular RNA molecule nearly 1.7 kb in length containing about 60% C+G. A high degree of intramolecular complementarity allows about 70% of the nucleotides to be basepaired to each other to form an unbranched, double-stranded, stable, rod-shaped structure.[2][3] The genome of HDV is unrelated to the genomes of hepadnaviruses, of which hepatitis B virus (HBV) is a member.[4] HDV is a replication defective, helper (HBV) dependent ssRNA virus that requires the surface antigen of HBV (HBsAg) for the "encapsidation" of its own genome. The envelope proteins on the outer surface of HDV are entirely provided by HBV.[5][6]

The outer envelope of HDV particles contains lipids and the three forms (S, M, and L) of HBV surface antigen (HBsAg), but predominantly the major form of HBsAg with very few middle (pre S1) and large (pre S2) proteins. The internal nucleocapsid structure of HDV is composed of the viral single stranded RNA genome and about 60 copies of delta antigen, the only HDV-encoded protein.[5]

HDV does not infect established tissue culture cell lines. Complete viral replication cycles in vitro are limited to primary hepatocytes that are coinfected with a hepadnavirus or cotransfected with hepadnavirus cDNA.[5][2]

Life Cycle

To replicate efficiently, a virus requires the cooperation of the host cell at all stages of the viral replication cycle. These stages include:[5]

  1. Attachment
  2. Penetration
  3. Uncoating
  4. Provision of appropriate metabolic conditions for the synthesis of viral macromolecules
  5. Final assembly of viral subunits
  6. Release of new virions

Hepatitis D virus requires the presence of an helper hepadnavirus to provide the protein components for its own envelope. How HDV enters hepatocytes is still not known, but it may involve the interaction between HBsAg-L and a cellular receptor. The incoming HDV RNA is then transported into the nucleus, probably by the small form of viral delta antigen, HDAg-S. Binding of HDAg to RNA also protects the HDV RNAs from cellular degradation.[5]

HDV RNA replication is carried out by cellular RNA polymerase II, without a DNA intermediate, and without the help of HBV. The RNA transcription is regulated.

  • Three forms of RNA are made:
  • Circular genomic RNA
  • Circular complementary antigenomic RNA
  • Linear polyadenylated antigenomic RNA - mRNA containing the open reading frame for the HDAg.

Synthesis of antigenomic RNA occurs in the nucleous, mediated by RNA polymerase I, whereas synthesis of genomic RNA takes place in the nucleoplasm, mediated by RNA Pol II.[7]

  • Small (p24) form of HDAg (HDAg-S) - transactivator of HDV RNA replication
  • Large (p27) form of HDAg (HDAg-L) - inhibits RNA synthesis and initiates virion assembly with HBsAg.
  • HDV particles include:

These elements are only assembled in the presence of the hepatitis B virus (helper virus). HBsAg and HDAg-L are necessary and sufficient for virus assembly, whereas HDV RNA or HDAg-S are not required, but are present, in viral particles. The primary initiation event for HDV assembly is the interaction of HDAg-L with HBsAg. HDAg is localized in the nuclei while and HBsAg is present in the cytoplasm of the infected cells. The mechanism of interaction between these two proteins remains unknown. That are different models that try to explain the mechanisms of viral RNA transcription and replication.[5][10][11]

Tropism

Natural Reservoir

Humans are the only known natural reservoir of hepatitis D virus, in nature. However, when in the presence of hepatitis B virus, or woodchuck hepatitis virus, HDV can be experimentally transmitted to chimpanzees and woodchucks, respectively.[2][5][3][12]
