## Abstract There are two types of Epstein Barr virus (EBV): EBVβ1 and EBVβ2, distinguished by genomic polymorphism in the genes encoding the nuclear antigens (EBNAβ2, β3A, β3B, β3C). Latent membrane protein 1 (LMPβ1) is an EBV protein with known oncogenic properties. Different variants had been de
## Abstract Latent membrane protein 1 (LMPβ1) is an EpsteinβBarr virusβencoded oncoprotein expressed in βΌ50β70% of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Previous studies have shown that NPCβderived LMPβ1 variants carrying 30 bp deletion and specific mutations in the 3β²Cβterminal region confer high oncoge

## Abstract Nasopharyngeal carcinoma, a malignancy associated closely with EpsteinβBarr virus (EBV), is prevalent among Chinese of Southern China origin. Epidemiological studies indicate a high prevalence of EBV in Asia with viral isolates having typical characteristics of the putative viral oncoge
