[Merkel cell polyomavirus and Merkel cell carcinoma].

Uirusu - 1 Jun 2009

Nakamura Tomoyuki, Katano Harutaka

Abstract excerpt

A new polyomavirus, Merkel cell polyomavirus, was identified from Merkel cell carcinoma, a rare skin cancer. Origin of Merkel cell carcinoma is Merkel cell, a neuroendocrine cell in the skin. Merkel cell carcinoma occurs in the skin of head and face of white elders. Like other polyomaviruses, a 5.4 kbp-virus genome encodes VP1, VP2, VP3, small T antigen, and large T (LT) antigen. MCV has been frequently detected...
