[0063] Example 2: Materials and methods

[0064] Expression and purification of recombinant EBNA1DBD. Amino acids 454 to 607 of EBNA1 encoding the DNA binding domain (GENBANK accession number YP_401677; SEQ ID NO: 1) were expressed in E. coli as a hexahistidine fusion protein. Expression was in Rosetta2 cells induced with 0.3 mM IPTG for 3 hours at 25°C. Soluble protein was recovered and purified by Ni-NTA agarose following standard methods (Frangioni & Neel (1993) Anal. Biochem. 210:179-87). The bound protein was extensively washed with 20 mM HEPES, pH 7.9, 1 M NaCl, 5 mM 2-mercaptoethanol, 40 mM imidazole and 10% glycerol to dissociate non-specific DNA bound to EBNA1, and then washed in a buffer containing 250 mM imidazole take off. Peak fractions of the eluted protein were pooled and dialyzed against 20 mM HEPES, pH 7.9, 500 mM NaCl, 5 mM 2-mercaptoethanol, 10% glycerol and 0.2 mM PMSF.

Abstract

The present invention embraces compounds that modulate the activity of Epstein-Barr Nuclear Antigen 1 (BBNA1 ) protein and use thereof in methods for treating latent Epstein-Barr virus infection. R7 is a substituted or unsubstituted phenyl, pyridyl, or pyrimidinyl group. A pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound of the invention in admixture with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier is also provide as are methods for modulating the activity of Epstein-Barr Nuclear Antigen 1 (EBNA1 ) protein and treating a latent EpsteinBarr virus infection with a composition of the present invention.

Description

Background of the invention [0001] This application claims the benefit of priority of US Provisional Application No. 61 / 489,293, filed May 24, 2011, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. [0002] Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is an oncogenic cofactor for several lymphoid and epithelial malignancies (Kieff (2007), Epstein-Barr Virus and its Replication, vol. 5th Edition, Wolters Kluwer Health / Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, Philadelphia; Rickinson & Kieff (2007), Epstein-Barr Virus, 5th Edition, Wolters Kluwer Health / Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, Philadelphia; Young & Rickinson (2004) Nat. Rev. Cancer 4:757-68). EBV is associated with most prevalent forms of Burkitt's lymphoma and nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). EBV is also present in ~50% of all Hodgkin's disease tumor biopsies, some forms of gastric cancer, thyroid tumors, NK / T-cell lymphomas, and most non-Hodgkin's lymphomas and lymphoproliferative disorders associated with immunosuppression Find. ...
