Target Details for EBV

Target: EBV (Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV))

Alternative Name: Epstein Barr Virus / EBV

Target Type: Virus

Background: Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), also designated human herpesvirus 4 (HHV-4), is a member of the herpesvirus family and is one of the most common human viruses, infecting about 90 % of the population. EBV infects only B lymphocytes and, though often asymptomatic, it can cause infectious mononucleosis, a disease characterized by fatigue, fever, sore throat and muscle soreness. The linear genome of EBV circularizes once it enters the cell and exists there as an episome. EBV may play a role in the development of both Burkitt lymphoma, a disease in which a tumor can form on the mandible or maxilla, and nasopharyngeal carcinoma, a tumor found in the upper respiratory tract, most commonly in the nasopharynx. The viral capsid antigen (VCA) of EBV is used as a marker for screening for viral infection as well as nasopharyngeal carcinoma , and many a ntigens from the viral capsid are used in diagnostic tests.Synonyms: HHV-4, HHV4
