I don't know of any in hepatitis C virus.  These tend to be found in the
larger DNA viruses.  There is a book just out called: Viroceptors,
Virokines, and Related Immune Modulators Encoded by DNA Viruses.  Ed. G.
McFadden.  (R.G. Landes Co.) - which may be helpful.  (Potential conflict
alert - I wrote a chapter.) If you would like further information, drop me
a note; I'm not an expert in the field but I've done some related work.
