Identification of the nuclear localization signals within the Epstein–Barr virus EBNA-6 protein
1 Jan 2004
Abstract excerpt
Epstein-Barr virus nuclear antigen (EBNA)-6 is essential for EBV-induced immortalization of primary human B-lymphocytes in vitro. Previous studies have shown that EBNA-6 acts as a transcriptional regulator of viral and cellular genes; however at present, few functional domains of the 140 kDa EBNA-6 protein have been completely characterized. There are five computer-predicted nuclear localization signals (NLS),...
