Abstract The switch from latency to lytic phase of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is coordinated by the expression of two viral transactivators known as ZEBRA and RTA. The BFRF1 gene has been shown to be transcribed during the early phases of EBV lytic cycle. Here, we characterized the BFRF1 promoter showing that ZEBRA transfection stimulated BFRF1 expression, whereas RTA induced BFRF1 only after the transfection of an amount of plasmid largely in excess than that sufficient to stimulate the expression of other RTA-responsive genes. However, a co-operative effect between ZEBRA and RTA in the expression of BFRF1 is evident since the transfection of RTA can rescue the transactivating capacity of a mutant of the ZEBRA protein, known as Z(S186A), that has a substitution affecting the DNA binding region. Moreover, we identified one ZEBRA-responsive element (ZRE) and one RTA-responsive element (RRE) within the BFRF1 promoter region.

Note
Basic Characteristics of Mutations
  • Mutation Site: The specific location in a gene or protein sequence where a change occurs.
  • Mutation Level: The level at which a mutation occurs, including the nucleotide or amino acid level.
  • Mutation Type: The nature of the mutation, such as missense mutation, nonsense mutation, synonymous mutation, etc.
  • Gene/Protein/Region: Refers to the specific region of the virus where the mutation occurs. Including viral genes, viral proteins, or a specific viral genome region. If the article does not specifically indicate the relationship between the mutation and its correspondence, the main
  • Gene/Protein/Region studied in the article is marked.
  • Genotype/Subtype: Refers to the viral genotype or subtype where the mutation occurs. If the article does not specifically indicate the relationship between the mutation and its correspondence, the main Genotype/Subtype studied in the article is marked.
  • Viral Reference: Refers to the standard virus strain used to compare and analyze viral sequences.
Functional Impact and Mechanisms
  • Disease: An abnormal physiological state with specific symptoms and signs caused by viral infection.
  • Immune: The article focuses on the study of mutations and immune.
  • Target Gene: Host genes that viral mutations may affect.
Clinical and Epidemiological Correlations
