  2. Oncovirus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oncovirus

    Tumor viruses come in a variety of forms: Viruses with a DNA genome, such as adenovirus, and viruses with an RNA genome, like the hepatitis C virus (HCV), can cause cancers, as can retroviruses having both DNA and RNA genomes (Human T-lymphotropic virus and hepatitis B virus, which normally replicates as a mixed double and single-stranded DNA ...

  3. Merkel cell polyomavirus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merkel_cell_polyomavirus

    A complete MCV genome was designed from multiple Merkel Cell carcinoma tumors and normal human tissues. [13] Polyomaviruses are small (~5400 base pair), non-enveloped, double-stranded DNA viruses. MCV is the fifth polyomavirus that infects humans to be discovered.

  4. SV40 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SV40

    SV40 is an abbreviation for simian vacuolating virus 40 or simian virus 40, a polyomavirus that is found in both monkeys and humans.Like other polyomaviruses, SV40 is a DNA virus that is found to cause tumors in humans and animals, but most often persists as a latent infection.

  5. Polyomaviridae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyomaviridae

    Polyomaviruses are non-enveloped double-stranded DNA viruses with circular genomes of around 5000 base pairs. With such a small size, they are ranked among the smallest known double stranded DNA viruses. [12] The genome is packaged in a viral capsid of about 40-50 nanometers in diameter, which is icosahedral in shape (T=7 symmetry).

  6. Epstein–Barr virus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epstein–Barr_virus

    The Epstein–Barr virus (EBV), formally called Human gammaherpesvirus 4, is one of the nine known human herpesvirus types in the herpes family, and is one of the most common viruses in humans. EBV is a double-stranded DNA virus. [2] Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) is the first identified oncogenic virus, or a virus that can cause cancer. EBV ...

  7. Large tumor antigen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Large_tumor_antigen

    The large tumor antigen (also called the large T-antigen and abbreviated LTag or LT) is a protein encoded in the genomes of polyomaviruses, which are small double-stranded DNA viruses. LTag is expressed early in the infectious cycle and is essential for viral proliferation.

  8. SV40 large T antigen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SV40_large_T_antigen

    TAg is a product of an early gene transcribed during viral infection by SV40, and is involved in viral genome replication and regulation of host cell cycle. SV40 is a double-stranded, circular DNA virus belonging to the Polyomaviridae (earlier Papovavirus) family, Orthopolyomavirus genus.

  9. Infectious causes of cancer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infectious_causes_of_cancer

    The Papanicolaou smear ("Pap" smear) is a widely used cancer screening test for cervical cancer. DNA-based tests to identify the virus are also available. [12] Herpesviruses are a third group of common cancer-causing viruses. Two types of herpesviruses have been associated with cancer: the Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) and human herpesvirus 8 (HHV ...
