Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a human tumor virus, which preferentially infects resting human B cells. Upon infection in vitro , EBV activates and immortalizes these cells. The viral latent protein EBV nuclear antigen (EBNA) 2 is essential for B cell activation and immortalization; it targets and binds the cellular and ubiquitously expressed DNA binding protein CBF1, thereby transactivating a ple...
