Human Polyomaviruses: Molecular Mechanisms For Transformation & Their Association With Cancers (Molecular Mechanisms for Transformation and Their Association With Cancers)
Human polyomaviruses are non-enveloped viruses with a circular double-stranded DNA genome of approximately 5000 base pairs. This book focuses on the etiological role of human polyomaviruses in cancer and highlights the mechanisms by which the viral regulatory proteins may contribute to neoplastic transformation of the infected host cells.
