Viral oncogene EBNALP regulates YY1 DNA binding and alters host 3D genome organization.
The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) nuclear antigen leader protein (EBNALP) is essential for the immortalization of naive B lymphocytes (NBLs). However, the mechanisms remain elusive. To understand EBNALP's role in B-cell transformation, we compare NBLs infected with wild-type EBV and an EBNALP-null mutant EBV using multi-omics techniques. EBNALP inactivation alters enhancer-promoter interactions, resulting in decreased CCND2 and increased CASP1 and BCL2L11 expression. Mechanistically, EBNALP interacts with and colocalizes with the looping factor YY1. Depletion of EBNALP reduces YY1 DNA-binding and enhancer-promoter interactions, similar to effects observed with YY1 depletion. Furthermore, EBNALP colocalizes with DPF2, a protein that binds to H3K14ac and H4K16ac. CRISPR depletion of DPF2 reduces both EBNALP and YY1 DNA binding, suggesting that the DPF2/EBNALP complex may tether YY1 to DNA to increase enhancer-promoter interactions. EBNALP inactivation also increases enhancer-promoter interactions at the CASP1 and BCL2L11 loci, along with elevated DPF2 and YY1 binding and DNA accessibility. Our data suggest that EBNALP regulates YY1 to rewire the host genome, which might facilitate naive B-cell transformation.
期刊介绍:
EMBO Reports is a scientific journal that specializes in publishing research articles in the fields of molecular biology, cell biology, and developmental biology. The journal is known for its commitment to publishing high-quality, impactful research that provides novel physiological and functional insights. These insights are expected to be supported by robust evidence, with independent lines of inquiry validating the findings.
The journal's scope includes both long and short-format papers, catering to different types of research contributions. It values studies that:
Communicate major findings: Articles that report significant discoveries or advancements in the understanding of biological processes at the molecular, cellular, and developmental levels.
Confirm important findings: Research that validates or supports existing knowledge in the field, reinforcing the reliability of previous studies.
Refute prominent claims: Studies that challenge or disprove widely accepted ideas or hypotheses in the biosciences, contributing to the correction and evolution of scientific understanding.
Present null data: Papers that report negative results or findings that do not support a particular hypothesis, which are crucial for the scientific process as they help to refine or redirect research efforts.
EMBO Reports is dedicated to maintaining high standards of scientific rigor and integrity, ensuring that the research it publishes contributes meaningfully to the advancement of knowledge in the life sciences. By covering a broad spectrum of topics and encouraging the publication of both positive and negative results, the journal plays a vital role in promoting a comprehensive and balanced view of scientific inquiry.
