Anti-EBV Nuclear Antigen/EBNA1 antibody [E1-2.5],Abcam,AB8329

Target data Responsible for the origin of replication (oriP) dependent replication and maintenance of viral episomes during latent infection (PubMed : 15479791, PubMed : 2996781). EBNA1 dimer interacts with the DS (dyad symmetry) element within the origin of replication oriP and with a host mitotic chromosome to initiate viral DNA replication during latency (PubMed : 24067969, PubMed : 2996781, PubMed : 31142669, PubMed : 8551585). EBNA1 binding to DS recruits the host origin recognition complex (ORC) (PubMed : 12953058). Governs the faithful mitotic segregation of the viral episomes by binding both the FR (family of repeats) element within oriP and the host mitotic chromosomes (PubMed : 11172042, PubMed : 15479791, PubMed : 24067969). Forms a cell cycle-dependent tyrosine-dependent DNA cross-link and single-strand cleavage at oriP required for terminating replication and maintaining viral episomes (PubMed : 33482082). Counteracts the stabilization of host p53/TP53 by host USP7, thereby decreasing apoptosis and increasing host cell survival (PubMed : 15808506). Induces degradation of host PML through the ubiquitin-proteasome system, which promotes lytic reactivation and may impair the host cell DNA repair (PubMed : 18833293). Increases the association of CK2 with PML proteins which increases the phosphorylation of PML proteins by CK2, triggering the polyubiquitylation and degradation of PML (PubMed : 20719947). Displays inhibitory effects on a SUMO2-modified complex that includes STUB1, KAP1 and USP7 (PubMed : 32176739). This inhibitory effect possibly participates to the maintenance of latency linked to PML silencing (PubMed : 32176739). See full target information EBNA1
