Abstract excerpt
Latent Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is maintained by the virus replication origin oriP that initiates DNA replication with the viral oriP-binding factor EBNA1. However, it is not known whether oriP's replicator activity is regulated by virus proteins or extracellular signals. By using a transient replication assay, we found that a low level of expression of viral signal transduction activator latent membrane protein...
