Function

Plays a critical role in cytoplasmic virus egress. Participates in the final step of tegumentation and envelope acquisition within the host cytoplasm by directly interacting with the capsid. Upon virion binding to target cell, a signaling cascade is triggered to disrupt the interaction with the capsid, thereby preparing capsid uncoating.

Biological Context

Subcellular Location: Virion tegument; Host cytoplasm; Host nucleus; Host Golgi apparatus, host trans-Golgi network

Protein Biology

Function

Plays a critical role in cytoplasmic virus egress. Participates in the final step of tegumentation and envelope acquisition within the host cytoplasm by directly interacting with the capsid. Upon virion binding to target cell, a signaling cascade is triggered to disrupt the interaction with the capsid, thereby preparing capsid uncoating. Activates the AP-1 pathway and enhances EBV reactivation and virus release (PubMed:26559845, PubMed:29695622). Inhibits type I IFN-induced TYK2, STAT1 and STAT3 phosphorylation, thereby impairing type I IFN signaling and counteracting the ability of type I IFN to suppress the reactivation of EBV (PubMed:32213613, PubMed:34319780). Recruits SHP1 phosphatase to dephosphorylate STAT1 (PubMed:34319780). Mediates STAT2 ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation (PubMed:34319780). Also suppresses type II and type III IFN signaling (PubMed:34319780). Contributes to G1/S arrest in the host cell (PubMed:24501404). Acts as an miRNA regulator that interferes with the function of RISC in miRNA-mediated mRNA silencing (PubMed:35007297). As a result, SUMOylation is increased (PubMed:35007297). When encapsulated in the exosomes released by EBV-infected host cells, may facilitate the infection in recipient cells (By similarity) (PubMed:35729616)

Subcellular Location

Virion tegument; Host cytoplasm; Host nucleus; Host Golgi apparatus, host trans-Golgi network

Subunit

Homodimer (PubMed:26559845). Interacts with BBLF1 (PubMed:32038519). Interacts with the capsid. Interacts with BKRF4 (via C-terminus); this interaction is important for infectious virion production (PubMed:28904200). Interacts with host TYK2; this interaction participates to the inhibition of host type I IFN signaling (PubMed:32213613). Interacts with host STAT1; this interaction leads to STAT1 dephosphorylation and inhibition (PubMed:34319780). Interacts with host STAT2; this interaction leads to STAT2 degradation (PubMed:34319780). Interacts with host CUL1; this interaction might facilitate CUL1 recruitment to STAT2, leading to ubiquitination and degradation of the latter (PubMed:34319780). Interacts with host AGO2; this interaction participates to the regulation of the host miRNA leading to enhanced SUMOylation (By similarity) (PubMed:35007297)
