Comprehensive profiling of Epstein-Barr virus-encoded miRNA species associated with specific latency types in tumor cells

Abstract

Our data provide a comprehensive profiling of the EBV miRNA transcriptome that is associated with specific tumor cells in the three types of latent EBV infection states. EBV miRNA species represent a cluster of non-encoding latency biomarkers that are differentially expressed in tumor cells and may help to distinguish between the different latency types.
