Variation in Human Herpesvirus 6B telomeric integration, excision and transmission between tissues and individuals
2021-06-08
Abstract excerpt
Human herpesviruses 6A and 6B (HHV-6A/6B) are ubiquitous pathogens that persist lifelong in latent form and can cause severe conditions upon reactivation. They are spread by community-acquired infection of free virus (acqHHV6A/6B) and by germline transmission of inherited chromosomally- integrated HHV-6A/6B (iciHHV-6A/6B) in telomeres. We exploited a hypervariable region of the HHV- 6B genome to investigate the re...
