Abstract
⺠Two cell-based reporter platforms were established for screening of EBNA1 inhibitors. ⺠EGCG acts as an inhibitor to block EBNA1 binding with the cognate oriP sequence. ⺠EGCG debilitates EBNA1-dependent transcription enhancement and episome maintenance. ⺠EGCG impairs persistence of EBV latency. ⺠EGCG is a potent anti-EBV agent for targeting the latent cascade of EBV.
