Function of ebv-BART-miRNA on host cell survival. miR-BART1, 16, and 17 can regulate the viral LMP1 protein expression [12] and miR-BART5 can alter the expression of the p53-upregulated modulator of apoptosis (PUMA) [13]. And in this article, miR-BART22 is demonstrated as a modulator of the viral gene, LMP2A.
