Although the involvement of macroautophagy/autophagy in hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection has become clearer recently, whether selective autophagy plays an important role in suppressing HBV remains uncertain. We recently found that LGALS9 (galectin 9) is an interferon (IFN)-inducible protein involve...
