Abstract
Antibodies and compositions of matter useful for the detection, diagnosis and treatment of Epstein Barr Virus infection in mammals, and to methods of using those compositions of matter for the same. Also disclosed are proteins, referred to as anti-gp350 antibody probes, and anti-gp350 B-cell probes, that maintain the epitope structure of the CR2-binding region of gp350, but do not bind CR2.
