Project description:Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) has a lifelong latency period after initial infection. Rarely, however, when the EBV immediate early gene BZLF1 is expressed by a specific stimulus, the virus switches to the lytic cycle to produce progeny viruses. We found that EBV infection reduced levels of various ceramide species in gastric cancer cells. As ceramide is a bioactive lipid implicated in the infection of various viruses, we assessed the effect of ceramide on the EBV lytic cycle. Treatment with C6-ceramide (C6-Cer) induced an increase in the endogenous ceramide pool and increased production of the viral product as well as BZLF1 expression. Treatment with the ceramidase inhibitor ceranib-2 induced EBV lytic replication with an increase in the endogenous ceramide pool. The glucosylceramide synthase inhibitor Genz-123346 inhibited C6-Cer-induced lytic replication. C6-Cer induced ERK1/2 and CREB phosphorylation, c-JUN expression, and accumulation of the autophagosome marker LC3B. Treatment with MEK1/2 inhibitor U0126 or autophagy initiation inhibitor 3-MA suppressed C6-Cer-induced EBV lytic replication. In contrast, the autophagosome-lysosome fusion inhibitor chloroquine induced BZLF1 expression. Transfection with siCREB reduced ERK1/2 phosphorylation and C6-Cer-induced BZLF1 expression. On the other hand, siJUN transfection did not affect BZLF1 expression. Our results show that increased endogenous ceramide and glycosyl ceramide (GlyCer) following C6-Cer treatment induce EBV lytic replication in gastric cancer cells via ERK1/2 and CREB phosphorylation and autophagosome accumulation.

Project description:Epstein Barr virus (EBV) replication contributes to multiple human diseases, including infectious mononucleosis, nasopharyngeal carcinoma, B-cell lymphomas, and oral hairy leukoplakia. We performed systematic quantitative analyses of temporal changes in host and EBV proteins during lytic replication to gain novel insights into virus-host interactions, using conditional Burkitt lymphoma models of type I and II EBV infection. We quantified profiles of >8000 cellular and 69 EBV proteins, including >500 plasma membrane proteins, providing temporal views of the lytic B-cell proteome and EBV virome. Our approach revealed EBV-induced remodelling of cell cycle, innate and adaptive immune pathways, including upregulation of the complement cascade and proteasomal degradation of the B-cell receptor complex, conserved between EBV types I and II. Cross-comparison with proteomic analyses of human cytomegalovirus infection and of a Kaposi sarcoma associated herpesvirus immunoevasin identified host factors targeted by multiple herpesviruses. Our results provide an important resource for studies of EBV replication.

Project description:Previously, we identified Syncytin1 to be expressed in human B cells and enhance EBV ability to undergo lytic replication. To gain mechanistic insight, we performed liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) on tryptic peptides from immunoprecipitated FLAG-tagged Syncytin-1 in latently infected EBV+ Burkitt lymphoma cells. This revealed a number of cellular proteins as potential Syncytin-1 interacting partners during latency and/or during the lytic phase as well as two EBV lytic phase proteins, the viral protein kinase and LF2, a negative regulator of EBV lytic gene transcription. We now find that Syncytin1 reduces the association between LF2 and the EBV replication and transcription activator to promote EBV lytic gene expression.

Project description:Latent Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) infection promotes cancers derived from B-lymphocytes and epithelial cells. EBV-encoded nuclear antigen 1 (EBNA1) is uniformly expressed in EBV-associated cancers. The MUC1 gene evolved in mammals to protect barrier tissues from viral infections. We report that MUC1 and the encoded oncogenic MUC1-C protein are upregulated in EBV-associated gastric cancers (EBVaGCs). We demonstrate that EBNA1 forms a complex with MUC1-C that regulates EBNA1 and MUC1-C expression. EBNA1 appropriates MUC1-C for (i) inducing DNA methyltransferases and DNA methylation, (ii) suppressing p21 and driving cell cycle progression, (iii) increasing survivin in promoting survival, and (iv) regulating MYC as an effector of EBV latency. MUC1-C thereby functions in maintaining EBV episomes and regulating EBV latency and lytic genes. In regard to EBVaGC progression, MUC1-C regulates expression of the SOX2 and NOTCH1-3 stemness genes, self-renewal capacity, and tumorigenicity. These findings indicate that EBNA1 co-opts MUC1-C functions that promote EBV latency and that MUC1-C is necessary for EBVaGC pathogenesis.

Project description:Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) genomes persist in latently infected cells as extrachromosomal plasmids that attach to host chromosomes through the tethering functions of EBNA1, a viral encoded sequence-specific DNA binding protein. Here we employed circular chromosome conformation capture (4C) analysis to identify genomewide associations between EBV episomes and host chromosomes. We found that EBV episomes in Burkitt lymphoma (BL) cells preferentially associate with EBNA1 sequence-specific DNA binding sites in the cellular genome that are also enriched for B-cell factors EBF1 and RBP-jK, the repressive histone mark H3K9me3, and surrounded by AT-rich sequence. These attachment sites corresponded to transcriptionally silenced genes with enrichment in neuronal function. Depletion of EBNA1 from EBV latently infected BL cells led to a transcriptional de-repression of these silenced genes. EBV attachment sites in lymphoblastoid cells (LCLs) showed different correlations, suggesting that latency types are functionally linked to the epigenetic environment of host chromosome attachment sites.

Project description:The human gamma herpesvirus Epstein-Barr virus, infects most adults and is an important contributor to the development of many types of cancer. Essential contributions of viral genes to replication are known but the potential contributions of cell genes to viral replication are less well delineated. A key player is the viral protein Zta (BZLF1, ZEBRA, Z). This sequence-specific DNA-binding protein can disrupt viral latency by driving the transcription of target genes and by interacting with the EBV lytic origin of replication. Here we used an unbiased approach to identify the Zta-interactome in cells derived from a Burkitt’s lymphoma. Isolating Zta and associated proteins from Burkitt’s lymphoma cells undergoing EBV replication, followed by Tandem Mass Tag (TMT) mass spectrometry resulted in the identification of forty-four viral and cellular proteins in the Zta interactome. Of these two were known targets of Zta. The association of Zta with Hsc70 and the contribution that Hsc70 plays to EBV replication mirrors a contribution from HSP70 family members to the replication of other herpesviruses. Conversely, the association of Zta with NFATc2 has no known parallels for other herpesviruses. Zta attenuates the activity of an NFAT-dependent promoter, which shows a potential for dampening the expression of genes regulated by calcium-dependent signal transduction. Indeed, Zta has the ability to affect a feed-back loop limiting its own expression, which would aid viral replication by preventing the toxic effects of Zta overexpression.

Project description:Extensive DNA methylation in promoter regions is observed in gastric cancer with Epstein-barr virus (EBV) infection and EBV infection is the cause to induce this extensive hypermethylaiton phenotype in gastric epithelial cells. From transcriptome analysis, we found that TET2, one of the demethylase enzymes, was downregulated by EBV infection in gastric epithelial cell line MKN7. TET2 was overexpressed in a gastric epithelial cell line, GES1, to see its function and the hydroxymethylation, a byproduct of DNA demethylation, acquired genes by TET2 overexpression and methylation acquired genes by EBV infection were significantly overlapped. These suggested that hydroxymethylation by TET2 could function to keep unmethylated status of genes before EBV infection, and TET2 depression could contribute to methylation acquisition of these target genes after EBV infection.
