Epstein-barr virus encodes three bona fide ubiquitin-specific proteases.
Manipulation of the ubiquitin proteasome system (UPS) is emerging as a common theme in viral pathogenesis. Some viruses have been shown to encode functional homologs of UPS enzymes, suggesting that a systematic identification of these products may provide new insights into virus-host cell interactions. Ubiquitin-specific proteases, collectively known as deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs), regulate...
متن کاملWhite spot syndrome virus Orf514 encodes a bona fide DNA polymerase.
White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) is the causative agent of white spot syndrome, one of the most devastating diseases in shrimp aquaculture. The genome of WSSV includes a gene that encodes a putative family B DNA polymerase (ORF514), which is 16% identical in amino acid sequence to the Herpes virus 1 DNA polymerase. The aim of this work was to demonstrate the activity of the WSSV ORF514-encoded ...
متن کاملMuscle-specific RING finger 1 is a bona fide ubiquitin ligase that degrades cardiac troponin I.
Muscle-specific RING finger protein 1 (MuRF1) is a sarcomere-associated protein that is restricted to cardiac and skeletal muscle. In skeletal muscle, MuRF1 is up-regulated by conditions that provoke atrophy, but its function in the heart is not known. The presence of a RING finger in MuRF1 raises the possibility that it is a component of the ubiquitin-proteasome system of protein degradation. ...
متن کامل282 Epstein - Barr Virus - Specific Cytotoxic
Restriction of virus-specific cytotoxic T cell function by products of the major histocompatability complex (MHC), 1 a phenomenon first described in murine systems (1-3), has now been confirmed for the human T cell responses to antigens on cells infected by influenza (4, 5), Epstein-Barr (EB) (6, 7), and more recently, mumps (8), measles (9), and cytomegalo(10) 2 viruses. In each case the patte...
متن کاملAn Epstein-barr Virus-specific Cytotoxic
All individuals previously infected with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) harbor life-long a population of virus-infected B cells whose number appears to be controlled by EBVspecific, HLA-restricted (class I and class II) CTLs (CD4 andCD8) that recognize a functionally defined lymphocyte-determined membrane antigen, LYDMA (1, 2) . There are two recognized types of EBV (A and B) that show sequence diver...
