Epstein-Barr virus deubiquitinating enzyme BPLF1 is involved in EBV carcinogenesis by affecting cellular genomic stability
13 Jun 2024
Abstract excerpt
Increased mutational burden and EBV load have been revealed from normal tissues to Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-associated gastric carcinomas (EBVaGCs). BPLF1, encoded by EBV, is a lytic cycle protein with deubiquitinating activity has been found to participate in disrupting repair of DNA damage. We first confirmed that BPLF1 gene in gastric cancer (GC) significantly increased the DNA double strand breaks (DSBs)....
