The Epstein-Barr Virus Immediate-Early Protein BZLF1 Regulates p53 Function through Multiple Mechanisms
18 Nov 2002
Abstract excerpt
The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) immediate-early protein BZLF1 is a transcriptional activator that mediates the switch between the latent and the lytic forms of EBV infection. It was previously reported that BZLF1 inhibits p53 transcriptional function in reporter gene assays. Here we further examined the effects of BZLF1 on p53 function by using a BZLF1-expressing adenovirus vector (AdBZLF1). Infection of cells with...
