Abstract excerpt
Interaction between the trans-acting DNA-binding protein EBNA-1 and cis-acting sequences in the ori-P region of Epstein-Barr virus DNA is required for maintenance of the viral plasmid state in latently infected B cells and is involved in the regulation of transcription during latency. In the Epstein-Barr virus genome, a total of 26 EBNA-1-binding sites occur within three clustered loci referred to as the family...
