Abstract excerpt

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) genomes in the P3J-HR-1 (HR-1) Burkitt lymphoma cell line rearrange at a high rate. Previously described deletions and rearrangements in HR-1 cells have been found at sites of EBV replication in vivo, suggesting that DNA rearrangement may be an integral aspect of EBV biol...
