| Results | Phenotype | Inhibited infection |
| Hits Number* | 106 | |
| Confirmed Hits Number | 58 | |
| Score | -10.97701942 | |
| Unit | Fold change | |
| Methods | Assay Type | Cell-based |
| BioModel Description | A siRNA-based screen silencing 691 human kinases and associated proteins in Huh7 hepatoma cells | |
| Confirmatory Screen Description | To validate the relevance of the identified kinases in the complete infectious viral life cycle, identified hits were confirmed in a secondary screen using cell-culture-derived HCV (HCVcc). False positive results due to toxicity were excluded using MTT-ba | |
| Primary Screen Description# | A primary screen using HCV pseudoparticles (HCVpp) bearing HCV envelope glycoproteins and vesicular stomatitis virus pseudotyped particles (VSVpp) as an unrelated control virus. | |
| Note/Comment | Inhibited entry and infection (58) | |
