Epstein-Barr (EB) virus isolates can be classified as type A or type B depending upon the identity of the virus-encoded nuclear antigen EBNA 2; the EBNA 2A and 2B proteins show limited amino-acid homology and induce largely non-crossreactive antibody responses in humans. To examine whether EBNA 2 mi
The level of Epstein-Barr (EB) virus-specific cytotoxic T cell responsiveness was measured in 21 patients with active, progressive rheumatoid arthritis (RA). A significant number (8 out of 20) of EB virus sero-positive patients showed a markedly impaired responsiveness when compared with a control g
## Abstract Spleen cells from mice immunized with EpsteinโBarr virusโtransformed lymphoblastoid cells (EBโLCL) were used to generate monoclonal antibodies to cell surface antigens associated with the EB virusโtransformed state. Radioimmune and immunofluorescence binding assays identified two antibo
