Abstract excerpt
The critical Epstein‒Barr virus (EBV)-encoded latent membrane protein 1 (LMP-1) and BamHI fragment H rightward open reading frame 1 (BHRF-1) genes affect EBV-mediated malignant transformation and virus replication during EBV infection. Therefore, these two genes are considered ideal targets for EBV vaccine development. However, gene mutations in LMP-1 and BHRF-1 in different cohorts may affect the biological...
