Project description:Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a ubiquitous human ɣ-herpesvirus implicated in various malignancies, including Burkitt’s lymphoma and gastric carcinomas. In most EBV-associated cancers, the viral genome is maintained as an extrachromosomal episome by the EBV nuclear antigen-1 (EBNA1). EBNA1 is considered to be a highly stable protein that interacts with the ubiquitin-specific protease 7 (USP7), but the precise role of USP7 in controlling EBNA1 stability and function is not fully understood. Here, we show that pharmacological inhibitors and small interfering RNA (siRNA) targeting USP7 reduce EBNA1 protein levels. The USP7 inhibitor GNE6776 altered EBNA1 protein interactions, including disrupting its ability to bind to USP7. GNE6776 also inhibited EBNA1 binding to EBV oriP DNA and reduced viral episome copy number. GNE6776 selectively inhibited EBV+ gastric and lymphoid cell proliferation in cell culture and slowed EBV+ tumor growth in mouse xenograft models. Transcriptomic studies revealed that USP7 inhibition differentially affected EBV+ cancer cells compared to EBV- cells with a significant effect on chromosome segregation and mitotic cell division pathways. Our findings indicate that USP7 inhibition perturbs EBNA1 stability and function and can be exploited to target EBV+ cancer cells selectively.

Project description:Epstein-Barr virus nuclear antigen 1 (EBNA1) is essential for the replication and stable maintenance of the viral episome in infected cells. Here, we identify the SUMO E3 ligase PIAS1 as a key regulator of EBNA1 through site-specific SUMOylation. Our Chromatin-Immunoprecipitation Sequencing (ChIP-seq) analysis revealed that PIAS1 is enriched at the viral origin of plasmid replication (oriP), where it physically associates with EBNA1 and catalyzes its SUMOylation. Using mutational analysis, we identified three lysine residues on EBNA1 (K17, K75, and K241) as major SUMOylation sites. Disruption of these sites compromises EBNA1’s ability to restrict EBV lytic replication. In addition, both PIAS1 depletion and the disruption of EBNA1 SUMOylation lead to reduced retention of EBNA1-OriP-based EBV mini-replicon, indicating the importance of EBNA1 SUMOylation in viral episome maintenance. Together, these results uncover a conserved post-translational mechanism by which PIAS1-mediated SUMOylation modulates EBNA1 function and EBV episome maintenance and suggests a broader role for SUMOylation in viral latency, lytic replication and persistence.

Project description:EBNA1 is the EBV-encoded nuclear antigen required for viral episome maintenance during latency. EBNA1 is a sequence specific DNA binding protein with high affinity binding sites for the viral genome, especially OriP. EBNA1 can also bind sequence specifically to a large number of sites in the host cellular genome, but the function of these binding sites has remained elusive. EBNA1 is also known to provide a host cell survival function, but the molecular mechanisms accounting for this function are not completely understood. Here, we show by integrating ChIP-Seq and RNA-Seq with experimental validation that MEF2B, IL6R, and EBF1 are high confidence target genes of EBNA1 that are essential for viability of B-lymphocytes latently infected with EBV. We show that EBNA1 binds to ~1000 sites with many, but not all, universally bound in different cell types, including Burkitt lymphoma (BL) and nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). We find that a large subset of EBNA1 binding sites are located proximal to transcription start sites and correlate genome-wide with transcription activity. EBNA1 bound to genes of high significance for B-cell growth and function, including MEF2B, IL6R, EBF1, RNF145, POU2F1, KDM4C, FGR, EGFR, LAIR, CDC7, CD44, and IL17A. EBNA1 depletion from latently infected LCLs results in the loss of cell proliferation, and the loss of gene expression for some EBNA1-bound genes, including MEF2B, EBF1, and IL6R. Depletion of MEF2B, EBF1, or IL6R partially phenocopies EBNA1-depletion by decreasing EBV-positive cell growth and viability. These findings indicate that EBNA1 binds to a large cohort of cellular genes important for cell viability, and implicates EBNA1 as a master coordinator of host cell gene expression important for enhanced survival of latently infected cells.

Project description:The viral nuclear antigen 1 (EBNA1) of Epstein Barr (EBV) features two functionally redundant Arginine-Glycine (RG) repeats that contain symmetrically and asymmetrically di-methylated (SDMA/ADMA) and also mono-methylated (MMA) Arginine residues. We generated mouse monoclonal antibodies against the mono-methylated RG-repeat between aa 328-377. In addition to detect MMA-EBNA1, we aimed at the identification of cellular proteins that are bound to MMA-modified EBNA1 in EBV-positive Raji cells.

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:The Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) Nuclear Antigen 1 (EBNA1) protein is required for the establishment of EBV latent infection in proliferating B-lymphocytes. EBNA1 is a multifunctional DNA-binding protein that stimulates DNA replication at the viral origin of plasmid replication (OriP), regulates transcription of viral and cellular genes, and tethers the viral episome to the cellular chromosome. EBNA1 also provides a survival function to B-lymphocytes, potentially through its ability to alter cellular gene expression. Chromatin-immunoprecipitation (ChIP) combined with massively parallel deep-sequencing (ChIP-Seq) was used to identify cellular sites bound by EBNA1. Sites identified by ChIP-Seq were validated by conventional real-time PCR, and ChIP-Seq provided quantitative, high-resolution detection of the known EBNA1 binding sites on the EBV genome at OriP and Qp. We identified at least one cluster of unusually high-affinity EBNA1 binding sites on chromosome 11, between the divergent FAM55D and FAM55B genes. A consensus for all cellular EBNA1 binding sites is distinct from those derived from the known viral binding sites, suggesting that some of these sites are indirectly bound by EBNA1. We conclude that EBNA1 can interact with a large number of cellular genes and chromosomal loci in latently infected cells, but that these sites are likely to represent a complex ensemble of direct and indirect EBNA1 binding sites.
