Genomic footprints across Rp, Zp, and oriLyt of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) have been conducted in a panel of latently infected B-cell lines. Close protein-base contacts were found about 360 nucleotides upstream of the Zp initiation site. Gel shifts and transient transfection assays indicated that an Sp1-NF1 locus may serve as a repressive transcriptional element against Zp induction from latent EBV genomes. ...[more]
