"The present study further investigated how TRAF3 participates in LMP1 signaling. We found that TRAF3 mediates signaling both through direct interactions with the C-terminal activating region (CTAR)1 of LMP1 and through indirect interactions with the CTAR2 region of LMP1 in mouse B cells."
"Notably, our results...
