Induction of inducible nitric oxide synthase by Epstein-Barr virus B95-8-derived LMP1 in Balb/3T3 cells promotes stress-induced cell death and impairs LMP1-mediated transformation
The latent membrane protein 1 (LMP1) of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) causes cellular transformation and activation of several intracellular signaling events. In this report, we show that BLMP1 (encoded by the LMP1...
