Epstein-Barr virus induces germinal center light zone chromatin architecture and promotes survival through enhancer looping at the BCL2A1 locus
ABSTRACTEpstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a ubiquitous human virus that promotes B-cell activation and maturation through expression of latency proteins and non-coding RNAs. In this study, we provide evidence that EBV mimics the molecular phenotype of germinal center (GC) B cells. EBV infection of primary...
