Architecture of replication compartments formed during Epstein-Barr virus lytic replication.
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) productive DNA replication occurs at discrete sites, called replication compartments, in nuclei. In this study we performed comprehensive analyses of the architecture of the replication compartments. The BZLF1 oriLyt binding proteins showed a fine, diffuse pattern of distribution throughout the nuclei at immediate-early stages of induction and then became associated wit...
متن کاملLytic viral replication as a contributor to the detection of Epstein-Barr virus in breast cancer.
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) has an accepted association with the epithelial malignancy nasopharyngeal carcinoma and has also been reported in other more controversial carcinoma settings. Evaluation of EBV association with epithelial carcinomas such as breast cancer would benefit from a better understanding of the outcome of EBV infection of these cells. Cell-free preparations of a green fluorescen...
متن کاملLeflunomide/teriflunomide inhibit Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-induced lymphoproliferative disease and lytic viral replication
EBV infection causes mononucleosis and is associated with specific subsets of B cell lymphomas. Immunosuppressed patients such as organ transplant recipients are particularly susceptible to EBV-induced lymphoproliferative disease (LPD), which can be fatal. Leflunomide (a drug used to treat rheumatoid arthritis) and its active metabolite teriflunomide (used to treat multiple sclerosis) inhibit d...
متن کاملBinding of Epstein-Barr virus small RNA EBER-1 to the double-stranded RNA-activated protein kinase DAI.
Epstein-Barr virus encodes two small RNAs, EBER-1 and -2, that are abundantly expressed in latently infected cells. Recent evidence suggests a role for EBER-1 in regulation of translation since this RNA is able to prevent the inhibition of protein synthesis by double-stranded RNA in rabbit reticulocyte lysates. We show here that EBER-1 that has been synthesized in vitro forms a complex with the...
متن کاملThe Epstein-Barr Virus BDLF4 Gene Is Required for Efficient Expression of Viral Late Lytic Genes.
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a gammaherpesvirus, associated with infectious mononucleosis and various types of malignancy. We focused here on the BDLF4 gene of EBV and identified it as a lytic gene, expressed with early kinetics. Viral late gene expression of the BDLF4 knockout strain was severely restricted; this could be restored by an exogenous supply of BDLF4. These results indicate that BDL...
