Abstract excerpt
It has been generally believed that the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-encoded small RNA 1 and 2 (EBER1 and EBER2) genes are conserved as two families that correlated with type 1 (B95-8) and type 2 (AG876 or P3HR-1) EBV strains. EBER polymorphism and its association with EBV-associated disease have not received much attention. To explore the variations of EBER genes in different malignancies and healthy donors, the...
