Abstract

We have analyzed the activity and regulated expression of a new Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) trans-activator (I'ta) encoded by left reading frame 4 (BI'LF4) of the BamHI I'fragment. The gene was detected in all genomes of established EBV strains and individual isolates, with the exception of B95-8, where the type-specific deletion of this open reading frame is tolerated in vitro. Specific ...
