Epstein-Barr Virus Lytic Cycle Reactivation

Abstract: Epstein-Barr virus, which mainly infects B cells and epithelial cells, has two modes of infection: latent and lytic. Epstein-Barr virus infection is predominantly latent; however, lytic infection is detected in healthy seropositive individuals and becomes more prominent in certain pathological conditions. Lytic infection is divided into several stages: early gene expression, DNA replication, late gene expression, assembly, and egress. This chapter summarizes the most recent progress made toward understanding t… Show more

“…EBV early genes are synergistically induced by ZTA and RTA and encode the viral polymerase and replication machinery. Late viral genes encode structural proteins that encapsidate and mediate release of infectious virions (McKenzie and El-Guindy, 2015). …”

“…The molecular mechanisms driving the process of reactivation are understood primarily in the context of transcriptional regulation of the BZLF1 promoter (Zp). Numerous factors that bind to Zp have been identified as either positive or negative regulators of BZLF1 transcription, as well as a few cellular factors that contribute to lytic reactivation (McKenzie and El-Guindy, 2015). Understanding the molecular mechanisms dictating the latent to lytic switch may offer therapeutic insight for oncolytic therapy in latency-associated tumors.…”
