A subset of replication proteins enhances origin recognition and lytic replication by the Epstein-Barr virus ZEBRA protein. [PDF]
ZEBRA is a site-specific DNA binding protein that functions as a transcriptional activator and as an origin binding protein. Both activities require that ZEBRA recognizes DNA motifs that are scattered along the viral genome.
