Marek’s Disease Virus Telomeric Integration Profiles of Neoplastic Host Tissues Reveal Unbiased Chromosomal Selection and Loss of Cellular Diversity during Tumorigenesis

The avian α-herpesvirus known as Marek’s disease virus (MDV) linearly integrates its genomic DNA into host telomeres during infection. The resulting disease, Marek’s disease (MD), is characterized by virally-induced lymphomas with high mortality. The temporal dynamics of MDV-positive (MDV<sup>...
