Transition of EBV gene expression upon primary B-cell infection. EBV infection of primary human B cells triggers the expression of both latent and lytic viral genes, which is termed the pre-latent phase. Subsequently, viral genes are silenced gradually. Example representative cells with the indicated patterns of viral gene expression in vivo are shown. Bold letters are B cells, and non-bold letters indicate non-B cells.
