In cultured cells, adeno-associated virus (AAV) replication requires coinfection with a helper virus, either adenovirus or herpesvirus. In the absence of helper virus coinfection AAV can integrate its genome site specifically into the AAVS1 region of chromosome 19. Upon subsequent infection with a helper virus, the AAV genome is released from chromosome 19 by a process termed rescue, and productive replication ensues. The AAV genome cloned into a plasmid vector can also serve to initiate productive AAV replication. When such constructs are transfected into cells and those cells are simultaneously or subsequently infected with a helper virus, the AAV genome is released from the plasmid. This process is thought to serve as a model for rescue from the human genomic site. In this report we present a model for rescue of AAV genomes by replication. A hallmark of this model is the production of a partially single-stranded and partially double-stranded molecule. We show that the AAV2 Rep 68 protein, together with the UL30/UL42 herpes simplex virus type 1 DNA polymerase and the UL29 single-strand DNA binding protein ICP8, is sufficient to efficiently and precisely rescue AAV from a plasmid in a way that is dependent on the AAV inverted terminal repeat sequence. 相似文献

The relative frequency of initiation of DNA replication within the RTF-Tc and r-determinant components of the composite drug resistance plasmid NR1 in Proteus mirabilis was evaluated. Using fractionated radioactively labeled plasmid DNA, analytical procedures that distinguished between the two components of the composite plasmid were carried out. A mixture of uniformly 14C-labeled and 3H-pulse-labeled plasmid DNA (pulse-labeled origin[s] of replication) was used in each of three experiments. First, shear products of the DNA were analyzed using CsCl density gradient centrifugation. Second, fragmented DNA was hybridized to nonradioactive RTF-Tc and r-determinant DNAs immobilized on nitrocellulose filters. Third, the radioactive plasmid DNAs immobilized on nitrocellulose filters. Third, the radioactive plasmid DNA was digested with restriction enzyme (EcoRI), producing a set of RTF-Tc and r-determinant fragments with differing 3H/14C isotpe ratios. The three experiments suggested that under the conditions used to accumulate replicating plasmid DNA molecules (DNA substrate limitation), the r-determinant origin of replication was preferentially utilized in the composite plasmid. 相似文献

The terminal fragment of avian adenovirus CELO has been cloned in a plasmid vector. The obtained recombinant plasmid pCBE1 carries the terminal BamHI-E fragment of CELO DNA. Transfection of a nonpermissive culture of Rat2 cell line by the plasmid DNA results in formation of transformation focuses. The cloned BamHI-E fragment of CELO DNA is concluded to contain the viral oncogene. Thus, the CELO genome region deriving the BamHI-E fragment is "left". 相似文献

A set of AT-rich repeats is a common motif in prokaryotic replication origins. We have screened for proteins binding to the AT-rich repeat region in plasmids F, R1 and pSC101 using an electrophoretic mobility shift assay with PCR-amplified DNA fragments from the origins. The IciA protein, which is known to bind to the AT-rich repeat region in the Escherichia coli origin of chromosome replication, oriC, was found to bind to the corresponding region from plasmids F (oriS) and R1, but not to pSC101. DNase I footprint analysis showed that IciA interacted with the AT-rich region in both F and R1. When the IciA gene was deleted, the copy number of plasmid F increased somewhat, whereas there was no major effect on the replication of pSC101 and R1, or on the E. coli chromosome. 相似文献

Reconstruction of adenovirus replication origins with a human nuclear factor I binding site 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
Nuclear factor I is a host-coded DNA-binding protein that stimulates initiation of adenovirus DNA replication. To understand the mechanism of action of nuclear factor I, we have constructed, by recombinant DNA techniques, origins of replication in which the adenovirus type 5 nuclear factor I binding site (FIB site) has been replaced by a FIB site isolated from human genomic DNA (Gronostajski, R. M., Nagata, K., and Hurwitz, J. (1984) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 81, 4013-4017). Assays of such recombinants for initiation and elongation in vitro showed that nuclear factor I was active only when the FIB site was relatively close to the DNA terminus, i.e. the FIB site was centered at nucleotides 30-36 from the end of the DNA. Nuclear factor I was active in either orientation within this distance range. The presence of one or two additional FIB sites in the downstream region had no effect. The implications of these results for the mechanism of nuclear factor I action are discussed. 相似文献

Activity in vitro of three replication origins of the antibiotic resistance plasmid RSF1040 总被引:20,自引:0,他引:20
Replicating molecules of plasmid RSF1040, a deletion mutant of R6K, were synthesized in vitro and analyzed by electron microscopy. Initiation of replication occurs at three unique sites, ori alpha, ori beta, and ori gamma, within a 3900-base pair segment of the R6K genome. These sites are indistinguishable from the origins that are active in vivo. Frequencies of initiation at these three origins, however, are different from those observed in vivo. Replication proceeds unidirectionally in either direction from ori beta and ori gamma and in one direction from ori alpha. The replication terminus of the R6K genome is inactive in the in vitro system. 相似文献

A selective replicative pressure occurs during the evolution of simian virus 40 variants. When the replication origin is duplicated as an inverted repeat, there is a dramatic enhancement of replication. Having regulatory sequences located between the inverted repeat of ori magnifies their enhancing effect on replication. A passage 20 variant and a passage 45 variant containing three pairs of an inverted repeat of ori replicated more efficiently than a passage 13 variant containing nine copies of ori arranged in tandem. A 69-base-pair cellular sequence inserted between inverted repeats of ori of both passage 40 and 45 variants enhanced simian virus 40 DNA replication. Differences in replication efficiencies became greater as the total number of replicating species was increased in the transfection mixture, under conditions where T antigen is limiting. In a competitive environment, sequences flanking the replication origin may be inhibitory to replication. 相似文献

Genome-wide replication timing studies have suggested that mammalian chromosomes consist of megabase-scale domains of coordinated origin firing separated by large originless transition regions. Here, we report a quantitative genome-wide analysis of DNA replication kinetics in several human cell types that contradicts this view. DNA combing in HeLa cells sorted into four temporal compartments of S phase shows that replication origins are spaced at 40 kb intervals and fire as small clusters whose synchrony increases during S phase and that replication fork velocity (mean 0.7 kb/min, maximum 2.0 kb/min) remains constant and narrowly distributed through S phase. However, multi-scale analysis of a genome-wide replication timing profile shows a broad distribution of replication timing gradients with practically no regions larger than 100 kb replicating at less than 2 kb/min. Therefore, HeLa cells lack large regions of unidirectional fork progression. Temporal transition regions are replicated by sequential activation of origins at a rate that increases during S phase and replication timing gradients are set by the delay and the spacing between successive origin firings rather than by the velocity of single forks. Activation of internal origins in a specific temporal transition region is directly demonstrated by DNA combing of the IGH locus in HeLa cells. Analysis of published origin maps in HeLa cells and published replication timing and DNA combing data in several other cell types corroborate these findings, with the interesting exception of embryonic stem cells where regions of unidirectional fork progression seem more abundant. These results can be explained if origins fire independently of each other but under the control of long-range chromatin structure, or if replication forks progressing from early origins stimulate initiation in nearby unreplicated DNA. These findings shed a new light on the replication timing program of mammalian genomes and provide a general model for their replication kinetics. 相似文献

Construction of a viable SV40 variant containing two functional origins of DNA replication. 总被引:16,自引:0,他引:16
Viable variants of simian virus 40 (SV40) have been constructed which contain two functional origins of DNA replication (Or). The variants were made by introducing, at 0.175 on the SV40 map, a segment of DNA containing the viral Or. Two types of experiments demonstrate that the second Or is functional. First, the distribution of radioactivity in pulse-labeled SV40 (I) DNA is dramatically altered in the variants when compared with the parental virus. Second, electron microscopic examination of viral replicative intermediates indicates that while there is one initiation site for DNA synthesis in the parental genome, there are two sites in the variant. It was possible to introduce a deletion which inactivated the original Or at 0.67 map units in this variant. The resulting mutant could be propagated, and its DNA replication originated at the site of the newly inserted Or. 相似文献

Rifampicin-induced replication of the plasmid pBR322 in Escherichia coli strains carrying dnaA mutations 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The replication pattern of the plasmid pBR322 was examined in the dnaA mutants of Escherichia coli. The rate of pBR322 DNA synthesis is markedly decreased after dnaA cells are shifted to the restrictive temperature of 42 degrees C. However, addition of rifampicin (RIF) to cultures of dnaA strains incubated at 42 degrees C after a lag of 90 min results in a burst of pBR322 synthesis. This RIF-induced pBR322 replication remains dependent on DNA polymerase I activity. Efficient plasmid pBR322 replication is observed at 42 degrees C in the double mutant dnaA46cos bearing an intragenic suppressor of dnaA46. Though replication of pBR322 in dnaA46cos growing at 42 degrees C is initially sensitive to RIF plasmid synthesis is restored after 90 min incubation in the presence of the drug. RIF-induced replication of the plasmid pBR327, lacking the rriB site implicated in RIF-resistant synthesis of the L strand of ColE1-like plasmids (Nomura and Ray 1981; Zipursky and Marians 1981), was observed also in dnaA46 at 42 degrees C. 相似文献

Mammalian origins of replication. 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

It has been almost twenty-five years since Huberman and Riggs first showed that there are multiple bidirectional origins of replication scattered at approximately 100 kb intervals along mammalian chromosomal fibers. Since that time, every conceivable physical property unique to replicating DNA has been taken advantage of to determine whether origins of replication are defined sequence elements, as they are in microorganisms. The most thoroughly studied mammalian locus to date is the dihydrofolate reductase domain of Chinese hamster cells, which will be used as a model to discuss the various methods of investigation. While several laboratories agree on the rough location of the 'initiation locus' in this large chromosomal domain, different experimental approaches paint different pictures of the mechanism by which initiation occurs. However, a variety of new techniques and synchronizing agents promises to clarify the picture for this particular locus, and to provide the means for identifying and isolating other origins of replication for comparison. 相似文献

A bacterial plasmid containing 1.75 copies of double-stranded porcine circovirus (PCV) DNA in tandem (0.8 copy of PCV type 1 [PCV1], 0.95 copy of PCV2) with two origins of DNA replication (Ori) yielded three different DNA species when transformed into Escherichia coli: the input construct, a unit-length chimeric PCV1(Rep)/PCV2(Cap) genome with a composite Ori but lacking the plasmid vector, and a molecule consisting of the remaining 0.75 copy PCV1(Cap)/PCV2(Rep) genome with a different composite Ori together with the bacterial plasmid. Replication of the input construct was presumably via the theta replication mechanism utilizing the ColE(1) Ori, while characteristics of the other two DNA species, including a requirement of two PCV Oris and the virus-encoded replication initiator Rep protein, suggest they were generated via the rolling-circle copy-release mechanism. Interestingly, the PCV-encoded Rep' protein essential for PCV DNA replication in mammalian cells was not required in bacteria. The fact that the Rep' protein function(s) can be compensated by the bacterial replication machinery to support the PCV DNA replication process echoes previous suggestions that circular single-stranded DNA animal circoviruses, plant geminiviruses, and nanoviruses may have evolved from prokaryotic episomal replicons. 相似文献

The secondary structure of the RNA from the single-stranded RNA bacteriophages, like MS2 and Qb, has evolved to serve a variety of functions such as controlling gene expression, exposing binding sites for the replicase and capsid proteins, allowing strand separation and so forth. On the other hand, all of these foldings have to perform in bacterial cells in which various RNA splitting enzymes are present. We therefore examined whether phage RNA structure is under selective pressure by host RNases. Here we show this to be true for RNase III. A fully double-stranded hairpin of 17 bp, which is an RNase III target, was inserted into a non-coding region of the MS2 RNA genome. In an RNase III-host these phages survived but in wild-type bacteria they did not. Here the stem underwent Darwinian evolution to a structure that was no longer a substrate for RNase III. This was achieved in three different ways: (i) the perfect stem was maintained but shortened by removing all or most of the insert; (ii) the stem acquired suppressor mutations that replaced Watson-Crick base pairs by mismatches; (iii) the stem acquired small deletions or insertions that created bulges. These insertions consist of short stretches of non-templated A or U residues. Their origin is ascribed to polyadenylation at the site of the RNase III cut (in the + or - strand) either by Escherichia coli poly(A) polymerase or by idling MS2 replicase. 相似文献

Tomato golden mosaic virus (TGMV) and bean golden mosaic virus (BGMV) are closely related geminiviruses with bipartite genomes. The A and B DNA components of each virus have cis-acting sequences necessary for replication, and their A components encode trans-acting factors are required for this process. We showed that virus-specific interactions between the cis- and trans-acting functions are required for TGMV and BGMV replication in tobacco protoplasts. We also demonstrated that, similar to the essential TGMV AL1 replication protein, BGMV AL1 binds specifically to its origin in vitro and that neither TGMV nor BGMV AL1 proteins bind to the heterologous origin. The in vitro AL1 binding specificities of the B components were exchanged by site-directed mutagenesis, but the resulting mutants were not replicated by either A component. These results showed that the high-affinity AL1 binding site is necessary but not sufficient for virus-specific origin activity in vivo. Geminivirus genomes also contain a stem-loop sequence that is required for origin function. A BGMV B mutant with the TGMV stem-loop sequence was replicated by BGMV A, indicating that BGMV AL1 does not discriminate between the two sequences. A BGMV B double mutant, with the TGMV AL1 binding site and stem-loop sequences, was not replicated by either A component, indicating that an additional element in the TGMV origin is required for productive interaction with TGMV AL1. These results suggested that geminivirus replication origins are composed of at least three functional modules: (1) a putative stem-loop structure that is required for replication but does not contribute to virus-specific recognition of the origin, (2) a specific high-affinity binding site for the AL1 protein, and (3) at least one additional element that contributes to specific origin recognition by viral trans-acting factors. 相似文献
