Project description:Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a ubiquitous gammaherpes virus that establishes a life-long latency in over 90% of the world's population. Epstein Barr Nuclear Antigen 1, EBNA1, is the only viral protein consistently detected in all viral latency programs, as well as in all forms of EBV-associated malignancies. EBNA1 plays critical roles in the viral life cycle by fostering the replication and maintenance of the extrachromosomal viral genome as well as enhancing transcription from multiple viral promoters. Using chromatin immunoprecipitation and human promoter microarrays (an analysis termed ChIP-chip) we found that EBNA1 binds site specifically within multiple human promoters. To determine whether EBNA1â??s binding to these promoters perturbed gene expression, we measured the levels of cellular mRNAs by microarrays when EBNA1 was inhibited by a dominant negative derivative of EBNA1 (DomNeg1). Keywords: viral regulation of cellular genes We analysed mRNA expression from the EBV-positive lymphoblastoid cell line 721 transduced with either a control (empty) retroviral vector or a DomNeg1-encoding retroviral vector. For ChIP-chip, DNA from immunoprecipitated chromatin using a anti-EBNA1 antibody (IH4) along with total chromatin was hybridized to a Nimblegen human promoter arrays (CHAR0150-HP2). A single ChIP-chip experiment was performed with DNAs pooled equally from three independent ChIP experiments.

Project description:The Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) Nuclear Antigen 1 (EBNA1) protein is required for the establishment of EBV latent infection in proliferating B-lymphocytes. EBNA1 is a multifunctional DNA-binding protein that stimulates DNA replication at the viral origin of plasmid replication (OriP), regulates transcription of viral and cellular genes, and tethers the viral episome to the cellular chromosome. EBNA1 also provides a survival function to B-lymphocytes, potentially through its ability to alter cellular gene expression. Chromatin-immunoprecipitation (ChIP) combined with massively parallel deep-sequencing (ChIP-Seq) was used to identify cellular sites bound by EBNA1. Sites identified by ChIP-Seq were validated by conventional real-time PCR, and ChIP-Seq provided quantitative, high-resolution detection of the known EBNA1 binding sites on the EBV genome at OriP and Qp. We identified at least one cluster of unusually high-affinity EBNA1 binding sites on chromosome 11, between the divergent FAM55D and FAM55B genes. A consensus for all cellular EBNA1 binding sites is distinct from those derived from the known viral binding sites, suggesting that some of these sites are indirectly bound by EBNA1. We conclude that EBNA1 can interact with a large number of cellular genes and chromosomal loci in latently infected cells, but that these sites are likely to represent a complex ensemble of direct and indirect EBNA1 binding sites.

Project description:Latent Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) infection promotes cancers derived from B-lymphocytes and epithelial cells. EBV-encoded nuclear antigen 1 (EBNA1) is uniformly expressed in EBV-associated cancers. The MUC1 gene evolved in mammals to protect barrier tissues from viral infections. We report that MUC1 and the encoded oncogenic MUC1-C protein are upregulated in EBV-associated gastric cancers (EBVaGCs). We demonstrate that EBNA1 forms a complex with MUC1-C that regulates EBNA1 and MUC1-C expression. EBNA1 appropriates MUC1-C for (i) inducing DNA methyltransferases and DNA methylation, (ii) suppressing p21 and driving cell cycle progression, (iii) increasing survivin in promoting survival, and (iv) regulating MYC as an effector of EBV latency. MUC1-C thereby functions in maintaining EBV episomes and regulating EBV latency and lytic genes. In regard to EBVaGC progression, MUC1-C regulates expression of the SOX2 and NOTCH1-3 stemness genes, self-renewal capacity, and tumorigenicity. These findings indicate that EBNA1 co-opts MUC1-C functions that promote EBV latency and that MUC1-C is necessary for EBVaGC pathogenesis.

Project description:The viral nuclear antigen 1 (EBNA1) of Epstein Barr (EBV) features two functionally redundant Arginine-Glycine (RG) repeats that contain symmetrically and asymmetrically di-methylated (SDMA/ADMA) and also mono-methylated (MMA) Arginine residues. We generated mouse monoclonal antibodies against the mono-methylated RG-repeat between aa 328-377. In addition to detect MMA-EBNA1, we aimed at the identification of cellular proteins that are bound to MMA-modified EBNA1 in EBV-positive Raji cells.

Project description:Purpose: To identify the effect of EBV EBNA2 on cellular mRNA alternative splicings Methods: HEK293 cells were transfected with either GFP-EBV EBNA2 vector or empty vector (NC) for 48 hours. Then the cell RNA was sequenced by the Illumina NovaSeq 6000 high-throughput sequencing (RNA-seq, the second generation sequencing); and by the PacBio Sequel II platform (SMRT-seq, the third generation sequencing). Results: Log-fold changes of up- or down-regulated mRNAs between the control and experiment group were selected with a significance threshold of p<0.05. Conclusions: Our study describes the mRNA changes (including mRNA expression and mRNA alternative splicing) induced by EBV-EBNA2 in HEK293 cells

Project description:Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a ubiquitous human ɣ-herpesvirus implicated in various malignancies, including Burkitt’s lymphoma and gastric carcinomas. In most EBV-associated cancers, the viral genome is maintained as an extrachromosomal episome by the EBV nuclear antigen-1 (EBNA1). EBNA1 is considered to be a highly stable protein that interacts with the ubiquitin-specific protease 7 (USP7), but the precise role of USP7 in controlling EBNA1 stability and function is not fully understood. Here, we show that pharmacological inhibitors and small interfering RNA (siRNA) targeting USP7 reduce EBNA1 protein levels. The USP7 inhibitor GNE6776 altered EBNA1 protein interactions, including disrupting its ability to bind to USP7. GNE6776 also inhibited EBNA1 binding to EBV oriP DNA and reduced viral episome copy number. GNE6776 selectively inhibited EBV+ gastric and lymphoid cell proliferation in cell culture and slowed EBV+ tumor growth in mouse xenograft models. Transcriptomic studies revealed that USP7 inhibition differentially affected EBV+ cancer cells compared to EBV- cells with a significant effect on chromosome segregation and mitotic cell division pathways. Our findings indicate that USP7 inhibition perturbs EBNA1 stability and function and can be exploited to target EBV+ cancer cells selectively.

Project description:Chromatin structure plays a central role in the regulation of Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) latency. The histone variant H2A.Z.1 has been implicated in chromatin structures associated with initiation of transcription and DNA replication. Here, we examined the role of H2AZ.1 in the regulation of EBV chromatin and gene expression during EBV latent infection in two different EBV cancer cell models. We found that H2A.Z.1 is highly enriched with EBNA1 binding sites at oriP and Qp, and to a lesser extent with transcriptionally active CTCF binding sites on the EBV genomes in both Mutu I Burkitt lymphoma (BL) and SNU7-19 EBV-associated gastric carcinoma (EBVaGC) cell lines. RNA-interference depletion of H2A.Z.1 resulted in the reactivation of viral lytic genes (ZTA and EAD) and increases viral DNA copy numbers in both MutuI and SNU719 cells. H2A.Z depletion also led to a decrease in EBNA1 binding to oriP and Qp, on the viral episome as well as on plasmids independently of other viral genes and genomes. H2A.Z.1 depletion also reduced peaks of H3K27ac and H4K20me3 at regulatory elements in the EBV genome. In the cellular genome, H2A.Z.1 colocalized with only a subset of EBNA1 binding sites and H2A.Z.1 depletion altered transcription of genes associated with myc targets and mTORC1 signaling. Taken together, these findings indicate that H2A.Z.1 plays an important regulatory role in the regulation of EBNA1 chromatin binding and function in the EBV episome and host chromosome, as well as the epigenetic programming of the latent episome.
