- Title
CpG methylation as a tool to characterize cell-free Epstein-Barr virus DNA.
- Authors

- Abstract
The article investigates the effectiveness of CpG methylation in characterizing free Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) DNA. It used paramagnetic beads linked to methylCpG binding protein to separate virion and cell-derived viral DNA. It concluded that tumor derived viral DNA can be identified from virion associated viral DNA based on binding to methylCpG binding protein.
