Comments
  • FUNCTION: Isoform LMP2A maintains EBV latent infection of B-lymphocyte, by preventing lytic reactivation of the virus in response to surface immunoglobulin (sIg) cross-linking. Acts like a dominant negative inhibitor of the sIg-associated protein tyrosine kinases, LYN and SYK. Also blocks translocation of the B-cell antigen receptor (BCR) into lipid rafts, preventing the subsequent signaling and accelerated internalization of the BCR upon BCR cross-linking. Serves as a molecular scaffold to recruit SYK, LYN and E3 protein-ubiquitin ligases, such as ITCH and NEDD4L, leading to ubiquitination and potential degradation of both tyrosines kinases. Possesses a constitutive signaling activity in non-transformed cells, inducing bypass of normal B lymphocyte developmental checkpoints allowing immunoglobulin-negative cells to colonize peripheral lymphoid organs.
  • FUNCTION: Isoform LMP2B may be a negative regulator of isoform LMP2A.
  • SUBUNIT: Isoform LMP2A cytoplasmic N-terminal domain interacts with human SRC family protein tyrosine kinases SYK and LYN. Binds human ITCH, WWP2 and NEDD4L.
  • SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Isoform LMP2A: Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Note=Isoform LMP2A is localized in plasma membrane lipid rafts.
  • SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Isoform LMP2B: Intracytoplasmic membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Cytoplasm, perinuclear region. Note=Isoform LMP2B localizes to perinuclear regions.
  • ALTERNATIVE PRODUCTS: 2 named isoforms [FASTA] produced by alternative splicing.
    NameLMP2A
    SynonymsTP1
    Isoform IDP13285-1
    This is the isoform sequence displayed in this entry.
    NameLMP2B
    SynonymsTP2
    Isoform IDP13285-2
    Features which should be applied to build the isoform sequence: VSP_016139.
  • PTM: Isoform LMP2A is phosphorylated on cytoplasmic N-terminal tyrosines residues, possibly by human LYN.
  • PTM: Can be ubiquitinated at by human ITCH and WWP2 on the N-terminus in a lysine-independent manner.
  • MISCELLANEOUS: In healthy individuals, EBV typically establishes a persistent latent infection in which the virus can be detected in resting, nonproliferating peripheral B-lymphocytes. These latently infected cells express only 2 virally encoded genes, LMP2A and EBNA1.
