Various properties of EBV-gM peptide depicting its aggregation capability
• On analysing the aggregation score of individual fragments, we found a 11 amino acid long (146-157) fragment
derived from EBV-gM showing comparable hydrophobicity and average aggregation score values with Aβ1-42.
• Also, aggregation score per residue of EBV-gM146-157 showed comparable values with that of Aβ1-42.

3.4 Conclusion
Unique spectral changes associated with specific biomolecules were obtained in microglial cells post
EBV infection.
The biomolecular changes observed in time dependent manner correspond to characteristic events
implicated in virus-host interaction.
Early events from 2-4 hour post infection (pi) correlate with the attachment & entry of the virus in host
cell; the investigation directed us to believe that EBV enters the glial cells probably in the first 2 hpi
by utilizing PIP-dependent signaling pathways.
Late events post 12 hours of infection correspond to replication of the virus and it’s subsequent
egress from the glial cells. During its nuclear hijack process from 6-12 hpi, the virus manipulates
glycogen and amino acid metabolism in the microglial cells.
Interestingly our study reflected a possible role of ApoE and cholesterol metabolism in EBV infection.
