Epstein Barr virus genomes reveal population structure and type 1 association with endemic Burkitt lymphoma
2019-07-02
Abstract excerpt
Endemic Burkitt lymphoma (eBL), the most prevalent pediatric cancer in sub-Saharan Africa, is associated with malaria and Epstein Barr virus (EBV). In order to better understand the role of EBV in eBL, we improved viral DNA enrichment methods and generated a total of 98 new EBV genomes from both eBL cases (N=58) and healthy controls (N=40) residing in the same geographic region in Kenya. Comparing cases and contro...
