Expression of LMP1 in epithelial cells leads to the activation of a select subset of NF-kappa B/Rel family proteins

E Paine et al. J Virol. 1995 Jul.

Abstract

This study demonstrates that the Epstein-Barr virus protein LMP1 activates a specific subset of NF-kappa B/Rel proteins in the C33 epithelial cell line. Western immunoblot analysis used to analyze the intracellular distribution and abundance of the proteins present in these complexes demonstrated that levels of the p50 and p52 proteins were significantly elevated in the nuclei of LMP1-expressing cells. The data also suggest that LMP1 facilitates the translocation of p50 to the nucleus and may affect the processing of the p100 and p105 precursor proteins or the stability of p52 and p50.
