Abstract excerpt
The BZLF1 gene of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), which encodes a transcription factor, Zta, is transcribed into monocistronic and bicistronic mRNAs from two different promoters during the immediate-early stage of the EBV lytic cycle. It is generally accepted that the Zta protein translated from the monocistronic mRNA profoundly influences the activation of the EBV lytic cycle. In this study, we constructed a plasmid,...
