A Cell Culture Model of BK Polyomavirus Persistence, Genome Recombination, and Reactivation
2021-08-05
Abstract excerpt
BK Polyomavirus (BKPyV) is a small non-enveloped DNA virus that establishes a ubiquitous, asymptomatic, and lifelong persistent infection in at least 80% of the world’s population. In some immunosuppressed transplant recipients, BKPyV reactivation causes polyomavirus-associated nephropathy and hemorrhagic cystitis. We report a novel in vitro model of BKPyV persistence and reactivation using a BKPyV natural host ce...
