Abstract excerpt
Two EBV-negative B-lymphoma cell lines with different phenotypes were transfected with the Epstein-Barr virus EBNA-2 gene. The effects on the expression of 8 B-cell surface markers were analyzed by immunofluorescence methods. In one of the EBNA-2 transfected cell lines, the expression of the CR2 receptor CD21 was induced and the expression of CD23 was enhanced. The results suggest that the EBNA-2 gene is involved...
