Insights into the initiation of JC virus DNA replication derived from the crystal structure of the T-antigen origin binding domain.

JC virus is a member of the Polyomavirus family of DNA tumor viruses and the causative agent of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML). PML is a disease that occurs primarily in people who are immunocompromised and is usually fatal. As with other Polyomavirus family members, the replicatio...
