Abstract excerpt
The latent membrane protein 2A (LMP2A) of Epstein--Barr virus (EBV) has been implicated in controlling viral latency due to the ability of LMP2A to block B cell antigen receptor (BCR) signaling in vitro and to alter B cell development and enhance B cell survival in vivo. These LMP2A functions require interactions with the protein tyrosine kinases Syk and Lyn. However, a role for the Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk)...
