Epstein-Barr Virus Lytic Replication Elicits ATM Checkpoint Signal Transduction While Providing an S-phase-like Cellular Environment
16 Dec 2004
Abstract excerpt
When exposed to genotoxic stress, eukaryotic cells demonstrate a DNA damage response with delay or arrest of cell-cycle progression, providing time for DNA repair. Induction of the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) lytic program elicited a cellular DNA damage response, with activation of the ataxia telangiectasia-mutated (ATM) signal transduction pathway. Activation of the ATM-Rad3-related (ATR) replication checkpoint...
