Abstract excerpt
The six Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) nuclear antigen proteins (EBNA-1-6) show characteristic size variations between different virus isolates; this is a feature that has been used to identify the source of virus isolates in epidemiological studies (Ebnotyping). We have now studied the correlation bet...
