Function
Following virus entry into host cell, provides nuclear import of HDV RNPs thanks to its nuclear localization signal. Needs co-infection with hepatitis B virus to provide surface proteins, otherwise there is no packaging or budding. Packages the HDV ribonucleoprotein in hepatitis B virus empty particles.
Biological Context
Subcellular Location: Virion; Host nucleus, host nucleolus
