Y190 yeast cells were confirmed for expression of the EBNA-3C polypeptides fused to the Gal4 DBD by immunoblotting (data not shown) and subsequently transformed with the listed target proteins (fused to the Gal4 AD).
Reporter gene activities were determined as described in Materials and Methods. His-deficient growth indicates growth in the absence of histidine and in the presence of 25 mM 3-AT. β-Gal activity indicates β-galactosidase activity as determined by filter-lift assays.
