The Epstein–Barr virus nuclear antigen 3 (EBNA-3) is a family of viral proteins associated with the Epstein–Barr virus. A typical EBV genome contains three such proteins:[1]
- EBNA-3A (P12977 , EBNA-3; BLRF3-BERF1)
- EBNA-3B (P03203 , EBNA-4; BERF2A-BERF2B)
- EBNA-3C (P03204 , EBNA-6, EBNA-4B; BERF3-BERF4)
These genes also bind the host RBP-Jκ protein.[2]
EBNA-3C can recruit a ubiquitin ligase and has been shown to target cell-cycle regulators such as retinoblastoma protein (pRb).[3] [4]
