Of particular interest, Choi et al. and Zhang et al. reported that the Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) infection has a substantial role in inhibiting and translating the apoptosis inhibitor baculoviral IAP repeat-containing protein 6 (BIRC6, also known as BRUCE) and promoting apoptosis in AGS, an EBV-negative gastric cancer (GC) cell line [97,98]. This evidence concerns the gene BIRC6 and Epstein-Barr virus infection.
