Plasmid maintenance of derivatives of oriP of Epstein-Barr virus
1 Feb 1995
Abstract excerpt
oriP is the origin of plasmid replication of Epstein-Barr virus. Replication from oriP requires both the cis-acting elements (the family of repeats and the dyad symmetry element) and the viral origin-binding protein, EBNA-1. The ability of plasmids containing oriP to be maintained stably in EBNA-1-positive cells reflects the efficiency both of their replication and of their segregation each cell cycle. The...
