Virus Deoxyribonucleic Acid Sequences in Subdiploid and Subtetraploid Revertants of Polyoma- Transformed Cells 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:0 下载免费PDF全文
Polyoma-transformed cells can revert in the properties characteristic of transformation, although they maintain the polyoma-specific T antigen. Transformed cells contain the same number of copies of polyoma virus deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) per cell (eight) as revertants with a subdiploid or a subtetraploid chromosome number. The results indicate that the duplication of chromosomes in the subtetraploid revertants did not include the chromosomes that carry the viral genome. The virus DNA in both transformed and revertant cells was associated with high-molecular-weight cell DNA. Reversion of the properties of transformed cells was, therefore, not associated either with a decrease in number of virus DNA copies per cell or with a lack of association of the virus DNA with cell DNA. 相似文献

AFTER infection of monkey kidney cells with simian virus 40 (SV40), several species of SV40 specific RNA are synthesized1. Most SV40 RNA have a molecular weight of about 6×105 and 8×105 as measured by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis1. In addition to these classes of RNA, a large heterogeneous SV40 specific RNA species of up to three times the length of the monomeric SV40 DNA molecule has been observed1–4. Nothing is known about the structure of this large heterogeneous virus specific RNA. 相似文献

Intracellular Viral RNA Species in Mouse Cells Nonproductively Transformed by the Murine Sarcoma Virus 下载免费PDF全文
The size and quantity of virus-specific RNA in five non-virus-producing mouse cells transformed by the Moloney isolate of murine sarcoma virus (MSV) was determined. Hybridization of RNA from transformed cells with the [(3)H]DNA product of the RNA-directed DNA polymerase of the murine sarcoma-leukemia virus was used to detect and quantitate virus-specific RNA. The amount of virus-specific RNA in non-virus-producing cells was less than one-sixth of that found in virus-producing cells. A striking correlation was found between the amount of intracellular virus-specific RNA and the degree of agglutination by conconavalin A previously reported for the four non-virus-producing NIH/3T3 cell lines (Salzberg and Green, 1974). A major RNA subunit sedimenting at 26 to 28S was detected in all five MSV-transformed non-virus-producing cells. This could represent the RNA genome of defective MSV. 相似文献

Two discrete simian virus 40 (SV40) RNA species sedimenting at 19 and 16S, respectively, that are present in infected BS-C-1 cells were characterized with respect to the base composition and the ribonuclease T1 fingerprints. The base composition of the 19S SV40 RNA was found to be cytidylic acid (C), 23.0; adenylic acid (A), 28.3; guanylic acid (G), 23.9; and uridylic acid (U), 24.8; that of the 16S SV40 RNA was C, 19.3; A, 34.0; G, 22.0; and U, 24.7 mol%. Analysis of the ribonuclease T1 fingerprints indicated a difference in the base sequence of the 19 and 16S SV40 RNA. The presence of long sequences of adenylic acid residues (poly A) in these viral RNAs was confirmed. 相似文献

Arrangement of Integrated Avian Sarcoma Virus DNA Sequences Within the Cellular Genomes of Transformed and Revertant Mammalian Cells 总被引:5,自引:4,他引:1 下载免费PDF全文

We have examined the arrangement of integrated avian sarcoma virus (ASV) DNA sequences in several different avian sarcoma virus transformed mammalian cell lines, in independently isolated clones of avian sarcoma virus transformed rat liver cells, and in morphologically normal revertants of avian sarcoma virus transformed rat embryo cells. By using restriction endonuclease digestion, agarose gel electrophoresis, Southern blotting, and hybridization with labeled avian sarcoma virus complementary DNA probes, we have compared the restriction enzyme cleavage maps of integrated viral DNA and adjacent cellular DNA sequences in four different mouse and rat cell lines transformed with either Bratislava 77 or Schmidt-Ruppin strains of avian sarcoma virus. The results of these experiments indicated that the integrated viral DNA resided at a different site within the host cell genome in each transformed cell line. A similar analysis of several independently derived clones of Schmidt-Ruppin transformed rat liver cells also revealed that each clone contained a unique cellular site for the integration of proviral DNA. Examination of several morphologically normal revertants and spontaneous retransformants of Schmidt-Ruppin transformed rat embryo cells revealed that the internal arrangement and cellular integration site of viral DNA sequences was identical with that of the transformed parent cell line. The loss of the transformed phenotype in these revertant cell lines, therefore, does not appear to be the result of rearrangement or deletions either within the viral genome or in adjacent cellular DNA sequences. The data presented support a model for ASV proviral DNA integration in which recombination can occur at multiple sites within the mammalian cell genome. The integration and maintenance of at least one complete copy of the viral genome appear to be required for continuous expression of the transformed phenotype in mammalian cells. 相似文献

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) was extracted from virus-free simian virus 40 (SV40)-transformed hamster, mouse, and monkey cells and was inoculated into simian cells in the presence of diethylaminoethyl (DEAE)-dextran; infectious SV40 was recovered by using DNA from cell lines which fail to yield virus by the fusion technique as well as from cell lines which readily yield virus by fusion. The rescued virus was identified as SV40 by three methods: (i) neutralization of plaque formation by specific antiserum; (ii) induction of synthesis of viral-specific antigens detected by immunofluorescence; and (iii) presence of papovavirus particles seen by the electron microscope. Treatment of the transformed cell DNA with deoxyribonuclease or omission of the DEAE-dextran prevented the rescue of virus. Large amounts of transformed cell DNA were required (>10 mug/culture of 10(6) cells) to effect rescue of SV40 by passage through monkey cells. A linear response was obtained between the input of DNA with inocula between 10 and 45 mug of DNA/culture and the yield of SV40 recovered. Biological activity was demonstrable irregularly when the transformed cell DNA was assayed directly in the presence of DEAE-dextran. The DNA induced plaque formation in about 50% of the trials as well as the synthesis of SV40 tumor and viral antigens in rare simian cells. The infectious DNA appeared to be associated with cellular DNA. The infectivity was found in the pellet of precipitated DNA obtained by the Hirt technique and was inactivated by boiling for 15 min. These properties are characteristic of linear cellular DNA and not of free, circular SV40 DNA. 相似文献

Neuronal Cell Surface Molecules Mediate Specific Binding to Rabies Virus Glycoprotein Expressed by a Recombinant Baculovirus on the Surfaces of Lepidopteran Cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1 下载免费PDF全文

The existence of specific rabies virus (RV) glycoprotein (G) binding sites on the surfaces of neuroblastoma cells is demonstrated. Spodoptera frugiperda (Sf21) cells expressing G of the RV strain CVS (Gcvs-Sf21 cells) bind specifically to neuroblastoma cells of different species but not to any other cell type (fibroblast, myoblast, epithelial, or glioma). Attachment to mouse neuroblastoma NG108-15 cells is abolished by previous treatment of Gcvs-Sf21 cells with anti-G antibody. Substitutions for lysine at position 330 and for arginine at position 333 in RV G greatly reduce interaction between Gcvs-Sf21 cells and NG108-15 cells. These data are consistent with in vivo results: an avirulent RV mutant bearing the same double mutation is not able to infect sensory neurons or motoneurons (P. Coulon, J.-P. Ternaux, A. Flamand, and C. Tuffereau, J. Virol. 72:273–278, 1998) after intramuscular inoculation into a mouse. Furthermore, infection of NG108-15 cells by RV but not by vesicular stomatitis virus leads to a reduction of the number of binding sites at the neuronal-cell surface. Our data strongly suggest that these specific attachment sites on neuroblastoma cells represent a neuronal receptor(s) used by RV to infect certain types of neurons in vivo. 相似文献

Synthesis of Cell Coat in Normal and Transformed Cells 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
THE surface of transformed cells has been a focus of considerable attention recently because some of the properties which distinguish these cells from their precursors, such as decreased cell adhesiveness, altered cell orientation and loss of contact and density dependent inhibition1–3, may relate to changes on their surface. A common feature of vertebrate cells is the cell coat, a glycoprotein structure surrounding the plasma membrane4. Electron microscopy has revealed that transformed cells have a thicker coat than normal cells5 and we have now found that coat synthesis in cells transformed by an oncogenic DNA virus and in cells transformed by a chemical carcinogen occurs faster than in normal controls whereas only in the virus-transformed cells is the coat significantly thicker. 相似文献

Simian Virus 40 Transcription in Productively Infected and Transformed Cells 总被引:9,自引:13,他引:9 下载免费PDF全文
Several independent cell lines transformed by simian virus 40 carry a species of viral RNA of 900,000 to 1,000,000 daltons. A viral RNA species of similar size is found early in the lytic cycle. Late in the viral lytic cycle, two prominent viral RNA species of about 600,000 and 900,000 daltons are seen. The larger late species shares nucleotide sequences with, and is less stable than, the smaller. These RNA species are located in the cytoplasm of the infected cell. The regions of the viral genome coding for these RNA species are mapped by hybridization of lytic RNA species to fragments of the genome produced by cleavage with Haemophilus aegyptius endonuclease. 相似文献

Properties of Simian Virus 40 Rescued from Cell Lines Transformed by Ultraviolet-Irradiated Simian Virus 40 总被引:1,自引:2,他引:1 下载免费PDF全文
Simian virus 40 (SV40) strains have been rescued from various clonal lines of mouse kidney cells that had been transformed by ultraviolet (UV)-irradiated SV40. To learn whether some of the rescued SV40 strains were mutants, monkey kidney (CV-1) cells were infected with the rescued virus strains at 37 C and at 41 C. The SV40 strains studied included strains rescued from transformed cell lines classified as "good," "average," "poor," and "rare" yielders on the basis of total virus yield, frequency of induction, and incidence of successful rescue trials. Four small plaque mutants isolated from "poor" yielder lines and fuzzy and small plaque strains isolated from an "average" and a "good" yielder line, respectively, were among the SV40 strains tested. Virus strains rescued from all classes of transformed cells were capable of inducing the transplantation antigen, and they induced the intranuclear SV40-T-antigen, thymidine kinase, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) polymerase, and cellular DNA synthesis at 37 C and at 41 C. With the exception of four small plaque strains rescued from "poor" yielders, the rescued SV40 strains replicated their DNA and formed infectious virus with kinetics similar to parental SV40 at either 37 or 41 C. The four exceptional strains did replicate at 37 C, but replication was very poor at 41 C. Thus, only a few of the rescued virus strains exhibited defective SV40 functions in CV-1 cells. All of the virus strains rescued from the "rare" yielder lines were similar to parental SV40. Several hypotheses consistent with the properties of the rescued virus strains are discussed, which may account for the significant variations in virus yield and frequency of induction of the transformed cell lines. 相似文献

DNA and RNA from Uninfected Vertebrate Cells Contain Nucleotide Sequences Related to the Putative Transforming Gene of Avian Myelocytomatosis Virus 总被引:24,自引:0,他引:24 下载免费PDF全文
The avian carcinoma virus MC29 (MC29V) contains a sequence of approximately 1,500 nucleotides which may represent a gene responsible for tumorigenesis by MC29V. We present evidence that MC29V has acquired this nucleotide sequence from the DNA of its host. The host sequence which has been incorporated by MC29V is transcribed into RNA in uninfected chicken cells and thus probably encodes a cellular gene. We have prepared radioactive DNA complementary to the putative MC29V transforming gene (cDNA(mc) (29)) and have found that sequences homologous to cDNA(mc) (29) are present in the genomes of several uninfected vertebrate species. The DNA of chicken, the natural host for MC29V, contains at least 90% of the sequences represented by cDNA(mc) (29). DNAs from other animals show significant but decreasing amounts of complementarity to cDNA(mc) (29) in accordance with their evolutionary divergence from chickens; the thermal stabilities of duplexes formed between cDNA(mc) (29) and avian DNAs also reflect phylogenetic divergence. Sequences complementary to cDNA(mc) (29) are transcribed into approximately 10 copies per cell of polyadenylated RNA in uninfected chicken fibroblasts. Thus, the vertebrate homolog of cDNA(mc) (29) may be a gene which has been conserved throughout vertebrate evolution and which served as a progenitor for the putative transforming gene of MC29V. Recent experiments suggest that the putative transforming gene of avian erythroblastosis virus, like that of MC29V, may have arisen by incorporation of a host gene (Stehelin et al., personal communication). These findings for avian erythroblastosis virus and MC29V closely parallel previous results, suggesting a host origin for src (D. H. Spector, B. Baker, H. E. Varmus, and J. M. Bishop, Cell 13:381-386, 1978; D. H. Spector, K. Smith, T. Padgett, P. McCombe, D. Roulland-Dussoix, C. Moscovici, H. E. Varmus, and J. M. Bishop, Cell 13:371-379, 1978; D. H. Spector, H. E. Varmus, and J. M. Bishop, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 75:4102-4106, 1978; D. Stehelin, H. E. Varmus, J. M. Bishop, and P. K. Vogt, Nature [London] 260:170-173, 1976), the gene responsible for tumorigenesis by avian sarcoma virus. Avian sarcoma virus, avian erythroblastosis virus, and MC29V, however, induce distinctly different spectra of tumors within their host. The putative transforming genes of these viruses share no detectable homology, although sequences homologous to all three types of putative transforming genes occur and are highly conserved in the genomes of several vertebrate species. These data suggest that evolution of oncogenic retroviruses has frequently involved a mechanism whereby incorporation and perhaps modification of different host genes provides each virus with the ability to induce its characteristic tumors. 相似文献

Transcription of Simian Virus 40 II. Hybridization of RNA Extracted from Different Lines of Transformed Cells to the Separated Strands of Simian Virus 40 DNA 总被引:1,自引:16,他引:1 下载免费PDF全文
The amount of simian virus 40 (SV40) DNA present in various SV40-transformed mouse cell lines and “revertants” isolated from them was determined. The number of viral DNA copies in the different cell lines ranged from 1.35 to 8.75 copies per diploid quantity of mouse cell DNA and from 2.2 to 14 copies per cell. The revertants had the same number of viral DNA copies per diploid quantity of mouse cell DNA as their parental cell lines. (However, they showed an increased number of viral DNA copies per cell due to their increased amount of DNA.) By using separated strands of SV40 DNA, the extent of each DNA strand transcribed into stable RNA species was determined for the transformed and “revertant” cell lines. From 30 to 80% of the “early” strand and from 0 to 20% of the “late” strand was present as stable RNA species in the cell lines tested. There was no alteration in the pattern of the stable viral RNA species present in three concanavalin A-selected revertants, whereas in a fluorodeoxyuridine-selected revertant there appeared to be less viral-specific RNA present in the cells. 相似文献

As a consequence of being diploid viruses, members of the Retroviridae have a high recombination rate. To measure recombination between two identical sequences within the same RNA molecule per round of retroviral replication cycle, a murine leukemia virus based vector (JZ442 + 3' Hyg) has been constructed. It carries a drug resistance gene, hyg, and a 290-bp repeat sequence of the 3' hyg gene inserted into the 3' untranslated region of the green fluorescent protein gene (gfp). Under fluorescence microscopy, Hygr cells containing the recombinant proviruses were clear, while a green color was observed in the drug-resistant cells carrying the parental proviruses. The rate of recombination was determined by the ratio of the number of clear colonies to the total number of Hygr colonies (green and clear colonies). The rate of recombination was found to be 62% by this method. The intermolecular recombination rate between an infectious virus bearing two copies of the 290-bp segment and a noninfectious chimeric RNA virus containing only a single copy of this sequence was also measured. 相似文献
