Abstract

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), a human oncogenic herpesvirus with a typical life cycle consisting of latent phase and lytic phase, is associated with many human diseases. EBV can express a variety of proteins that enable the virus to affect host cell processes and evade host immunity. Additionally, these proteins provide a basis for the maintenance of viral infection, contribute to the formation of tumors, and influence the occurrence and development of related diseases. Posttranslational modifications (PTMs) are chemical modifications of proteins after translation and are very important to guarantee the proper biological functions of these proteins. Studies in the past have intensely investigated PTMs of EBV-encoded proteins. EBV regulates the progression of the latent phase and lytic phase by affecting the PTMs of its encoded proteins, which are critical for the development of EBV-associated human diseases. In this review, we summarize the PTMs of EBV-encoded proteins that have been discovered and studied thus far with focus on their effects on the viral life cycle.
