Epstein–Barr Virus-Associated Malignancies: Roles of Viral Oncoproteins in Carcinogenesis
2 Aug 2018
Abstract excerpt
The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is the first herpesvirus identified to be associated with human cancers known to infect the majority of the world population. EBV-associated malignancies are associated with a latent form of infection, and several of the EBV-encoded latent proteins are known to mediate cellular transformation. These include six nuclear antigens and three latent membrane proteins (LMPs). In lymphoid...
