Award Details: The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) awarded Tulane University $571,747 under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.855) on February 19, 2026, with a completion date of January 31, 2031. The project, titled "Alpha-Satellite RNAs in Epstein-Barr Virus Lytic Replication," is a five-year biomedical research initiative based in New Orleans, Louisiana. Research Deliverables: This Project Grant funds investigator-initiated research examining the role of alpha-satellite RNAs (A-SATRNAs) in Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) lytic replication and associated pathogenesis. The research addresses critical gaps in understanding how EBV, a DNA tumor virus linked to lymphomas, nasopharyngeal carcinoma, and autoimmune diseases, manipulates host cellular responses during its lytic replication stage. The project will generate scientific knowledge regarding EBV's mechanisms for inducing and exploiting host DNA damage responses, with implications for developing therapeutic interventions for EBV-associated malignancies and immune disorders, particularly in immunocompromised populations such as individuals with HIV/AIDS. Deliverables will include peer-reviewed publications, experimental data, and foundational research advancing understanding of viral-host interactions during the lytic replication phase of the viral life cycle.Federal Grant Award Summary
