Interaction between Epstein-Barr virus and type-C virus in human cells
Abstract
The interaction between EBV and type-C viruses was studied in our FVNC experimental system, in which EBV and type-C viral genomes are contained in each cell. The data indicate that the human lymphoid FVNC cells are sensitive to both EBV and type-C virus exposure, showing high frequencies of induction of both repressed viral genomes. The two different viral genomes may be associated with different chromosomes in individual cells.
