STRUCTURE OF THE EPSTEIN-BARR VIRUS ONCOGENE BARF1
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 16647084
Function
[BRF1_EBV] Plays diverse functions in immunomodulation and oncogenicity, maybe by acting as a functional receptor for human CSF1. May inhibit interferon secretion from mononuclear cells. Exhibits oncogenic activity in vitro.[1] [2] [3]
