E1AF was first identified as a transcription factor that binds to enhancer motifs of the adenovirus E1A gene and is thought to be a human homologue of mouse PEA3, one of the ets oncoprotein families. Here we show the effect of E1A on the gene expression and function of E1AF. E1A repressed the activity of E1AF promoter, and the N-terminal region of E1A, which is involved in the oncogenic activity of E1A, was essential for this repression. The ability as a transcription factor of E1AF, as well as those of the other PEA3 subfamily members ER81 and ERM, was also repressed by E1A via the same oncogenic domain. Furthermore, E1AF repressed the transformation activity of E1A cooperating with E1B, whereas the other ets family Ets-1 enhanced this activity. These results suggest that E1AF is one of the targets of E1A.

Background: Determining the complete genome sequence data of adenoviruses has recently become greatly important due to their use by scientists as vectors in cancer studies and other fields, including vaccine development. However, the GenBank database currently has few complete genome sequences of adenoviruses, which are known for their large genomes. To address this gap, we analysed next-generation sequencing data obtained from our previous study to provide the complete genome sequence of the canine adenovirus-2 strain.

Unlabelled: Due to the importance of post-translational modification (PTM) in cellular function, viruses have evolved to both take advantage of and be susceptible to such modification. Adenovirus encodes a multifunctional protein called protein VII, which is packaged with the viral genome in the core of virions and disrupts host chromatin during infection. Protein VII has several PTMs whose addition contributes to the subnuclear localization of protein VII.

Polyomavirus enhancer activator 3 (PEA3), an ETS transcription factor, has been documented to regulate the development and metastasis of human cancers. Nonetheless, a thorough analysis examining the relationship between the PEA3 subfamily members and tumour development, prognosis, and the tumour microenvironment (TME) across various cancer types has not yet been conducted. The expression profiles and prognostic significance of the PEA3 subfamily were evaluated using data from the GEO, TCGA, and PrognoScan databases, in conjunction with COX regression analyses and the Kaplan-Meier Plotter.

There is no effective therapy for peritoneal carcinomatosis derived from gastric cancer. An ideal conditionally replicating adenovirus (CRA) that selectively replicates in and kills cancer cells has not been developed for gastric cancer-derived peritoneal carcinomatosis. Using our platform technology of CRA regulated and treating tumors with multiple factors (m-CRA), we generated two types of survivin-responsive m-CRAs, Surv.

Various viral proteins are post-translationally modified by SUMO-conjugation during the human adenovirus (HAdV) replication cycle. This modification leads to diverse consequences for target proteins as it influences their intracellular localization or cell transformation capabilities. SUMOylated HAdV proteins include the multifunctional oncoprotein E1B-55K.
