Identification and Characterization of the Human Herpesviruses 6A and 6B Genome Integration into Telomeres of Human Chromosomes during Latency
While the latent genome of most Herpesviruses persists as a nuclear circular episome, previous research has suggested that Human Herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) may integrate into host cell chromosomes, and be vertically transmitted in the germ-line. Because the HHV-6 genome encodes a perfect TTAGGG telomere...
