| Abstract | The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) lytic switch gene, BZLF1, is tightly regulated in latently infected B cells. The BZLF1 gene promoter (Zp) contains several cis elements that have been previously shown to respond to inducers of the viral lytic cycle. These include four copies of an element referred to as the ZI domains and an element that contains a consensus CRE/AP-1 motif (ZII domain). In addition, Zp is autoregulated through two sites that bind the BZLF1 gene product Zta. The ZI domains have been shown to bind the ubiquitous cellular transcription factors Sp1 and Sp3 and/or the myocyte enhancer factor 2D (Liu et al., EMBO J. 16:143–153, 1997; Liu et al., Virology 228:9–16, 1997). Here we present a functional analysis of the ZII domain and show: (i) ATF-1 and ATF-2 appear to be the predominant cellular factors that bind to the CRE/AP-1 motif present in the ZII domain; and (ii) the region immediately upstream of the CRE/AP-1 motif contains a potent negative cis element, mutation of which results in a >10-fold increase in Zp activity. The negative cis element (ZIIR) in the ZII domain decreases both basal and induced Zp activity and thus is likely to play an important role in regulating reactivation of EBV. In addition, analysis of heterologous promoter constructs indicates that the function of ZIIR is context sensitive. Attempts to demonstrate a cellular factor binding to ZIIR have been unsuccessful, leaving unresolved the mechanism by which repression is mediated. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
