Symmetrical localization of extrachromosomally replicating viral genomes on sister chromatids
4 Apr 2007
Abstract excerpt
In eukaryotes, many latent viruses replicate as extrachromosomal molecules, called episomes, and efficiently segregate to daughter cells by noncovalently attaching to mitotic chromosomes. To understand the mechanism governing the processes, we analyzed the detailed subcellular localization of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) genomes and a viral protein EBNA1, a bridging molecule between viral genomes and cellular...
