Image caption:
(a) Epitope comparison amongst the variants and those observed in the 3 cell lines studied. Red letters denote amino acid mutation. (b) Quantitation of HLA-A0201/LMP1,/LMP2A and/EBNA1 on CCRF-SB, RPMI-6666 and C666-1A2 using TCR-like mAbs based on flow cytometry. Error bars are standard deviation from an average of three independent experiments. **p < 0.01. n.d. denotes not detectable. (c) LMP1, LMP2A and EBNA1 in each of the cell lines was determined using RT-PCR and Western blot. β-actin was used as control.

Mouse anti Epstein-Barr Virus Nuclear Antigen antibody, clone E1-2.5 recognises the repetitive Gly-Ala region of EBV (Epstein-Barr Virus) nuclear antigen 1 (EBNA-1), a viral protein expressed consistently by EBV- associated malignancies.
Epstein-Barr Virus, also known as HHV-4 or Human herpesvirus 4, is a member of the herpesvirus family and one of the most common infectious viruses known, being responsible for a wide range of illnesses from infectious mononucleosis to nasal-pharyngeal cancer. EBNA-1 is the only viral protein expressed during group 1 latency and mediates the replication and partitioning of the episome during host cell division, binding to a replication origin (oriP) within the viral genome. The Gly-Ala repeat recognized by Mouse anti Epstein-Barr Virus Nuclear Antigen antibody, clone E1-2.5, inhibits the host’s CD8-restricted cytotoxic T-cell response to infected cells, by impairing antigen processing and MHC class I-restricted antigen presentation.
