Abstract
⺠Hepatitis C virus uses lipid droplets (LD) onto which HCV core proteins bind. ⺠HCV core proteins on LDs facilitate viral particle assembly. ⺠We used a novel combination of CARS, two-photon fluorescence, and DIC microscopies. ⺠Particle tracking experiments show that core slowly affects LD localization. ⺠Particle tracking measured the change in speed and directionality of LD movement.
