Evolution of the AID/APOBEC Family of Polynucleotide (Deoxy)cytidine Deaminases
TL;DR: It is found that although the family forms part of a larger superfamily of deaminases distributed throughout the biological world, the AID/APOBEC family itself is restricted to vertebrates with homologs of AID (a DNA deaminase that triggers antibody gene diversification) and of APOBEC2 (unknown function) identifiable in sequence databases from bony fish, birds, amphibians, and mammals.
Journal ArticleDOI
The BZLF1 promoter of Epstein-Barr virus is controlled by E box-/HI-motif-binding factors during virus latency.
TL;DR: In this article, the E box-binding protein, E2-2, was found to interact with these motifs, which implies a role in cell type-specific virus replication.
Short Communication The BZLF1 promoter of Epstein-Barr virus is controlled by E box-/HI-motif-binding factors during virus latency
TL;DR: The BZLF1 open reading frame of Epstein-Barr virus encodes an important transactivator of replication and the isolated E box-binding protein, E2-2, interacting with HI motifs implies a role in cell type-specific virus replication.
