Research Abstract |
Latently-infected Epstein-Barr virus(EBV) genomes are stably maintained by attaching to host chromosomes via virally-encoded EBNA1(Epstein-Barr virus Nuclear Antigen 1) protein. We examined whether cellular p32(TAP, gC1q-R) protein, a major binding partner of EBNA1, plays any role in the chromosome binding of EBNA1.Suppression of p32 expression in EBV infected cells did not affect the chromosomal localization of EBNA1.The result argues against the possibility that p32 protein has any role in the chromosome binding of EBNA1.
