Patients with AIDS and AIDS-related complex often show symptoms of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) reactivation. Several EBV-encoded trans-acting factors activate the EBV lytic cycle, and one, called ZEBRA (BamHI Z EBV replication activator), controls the switch of EBV from a latent to a productive cycle. We describe here a simple ELISA test using a bacterially expressed ZEBRA protein as antigen. Utilizing this technique, we evaluated the humoral response to ZEBRA antigen in 38 patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma and 134 subjects with an asymptomatic HIV 1 infection. The control group consisted of 40 healthy adult blood donors.
