The cycle of EBV infection explains persistence, the sizes of the infected cell populations and which come under CTL regulation.

Previous analysis of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) persistent infection has involved biological and immunological studies to identify and quantify infected cell populations and the immune response to them.
