We studied the pattern of integration of the simian virus 40 (SV40) genome into the cellular DNA of N-transformants (temperature sensitive) and A-transformants (temperature insensitive) derived from 3T3-Fisher rat and Chinese hamster lung cells. The SV40 DNA was covalently linked to the cellular DNA in both types of transformants. In the rat cells, most N-transformants contained SV40 sequences integrated at a single site; most A-transformants contained SV40 sequences integrated at two to five sites. In the Chinese hamster cells, no significant correlation between the number of integration sites and the phenotype of the transformant was found; one of three integration sites were observed for both the N- and A-transformants. Single copies and tandem repeats of SV40 sequences were observed in A- and N-transformants derived from rat cells. A-transformants arise neither by amplification of the SV40 genome nor by integration at a unique site. 相似文献

Chinese hamster A238 TK- -cells were transformed with plasmids (derivatives of pBR325) containing thymidine kinase (TK) gene of Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV1). The results of dot- and blot-hybridization indicate the presence of pBR325 sequences in the chromosomal fractions of DNA in the transformant clones. These sequences are probably tandemly arranged, and each cluster contains 25--50 copies. SV40 sequences cloned in pBR325 were introduced into the Chinese hamster cells by co-transformation with TK-gene of HSV1-containing plasmid DNA, and all the co-transformant clones selected for TK+-phenotype were shown by hydridization to contain 3V40 DNA fragments. Isoelectrofocusing in polyacrylamide gel shows that thymidine kinase from TK+-transformant clones is of viral type (isoelectric point 7), in contrast to the cellular enzyme (coded by chromosomal gene) having alkaline isoelectric point (pH 9). The results suggest that the true TK+-transformant cells are selected by the procedure used in this study. 相似文献

Induction of cellular DNA synthesis by a simian virus 40 mutant defective in nuclear transport of T antigen. 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
The simian virus 40 (SV40) (cT)-3 mutant [SV40(cT)-3], which is defective in nuclear transport of T antigen, was utilized to determine whether cellular DNA synthesis can be stimulated by SV40 in the absence of detectable nuclear T antigen. Cellular DNA synthesis was examined in the temperature-sensitive cell cycle mutants, BHK ts13 and BHK tsAF8, after microinjection of quiescent cells with plasmid DNA containing cloned copies of wild-type SV40 or SV40(cT)-3. The efficiency of induction of cellular DNA synthesis was identical for both wild-type SV40 and SV40(cT)-3 in both cell lines. The results suggest that cell surface-associated T antigen, either alone or possibly in combination with minimal amounts of nuclear T antigen below our limit of detection, is able to stimulate cellular DNA synthesis. 相似文献

Nick-translated simian virus 40 (SV40) [32P]DNA fragments (greater than 2 X 10(8) cpm/micrograms) were resolved into early- and late-strand nucleic acid sequences by hybridization with asymmetric SV40 complementary RNA. Both single-stranded DNA fractions contained less than 0.5% self-complementary sequences; both included [32P]-DNA sequences that derived from all regions of the SV40 genome. In contrast to asymmetric SV40 complementary RNA, both single-stranded [32P]DNAs annealed to viral [3H]DNA at a rate characteristic of SV40 DNA reassociation. Kinetics of reassociation between the single-stranded [32P]DNAs indicated that the two fractions contain greater than 90% of the total nucleotide sequences comprising the SV40 genome. These preparations were used as hybridization probes to detect small amounts of viral DNA integrated into the chromosomes of Chinese hamster cells transformed by SV40. Under the conditions used for hybridization titrations in solution (i.e., 10- to 50-fold excess of radioactive probe), as little as 1 pg of integrated SV40 DNA sequence was assayed quantitatively. Among the transformed cells analyzed, three clones contained approximately one viral genome equivalent of SV40 DNA per diploid cell DNA complement; three other clones contained between 1.2 and 1.6 viral genome equivalents of SV40 DNA; and one clone contained somewhat more than two viral genome equivalents of SV40 DNA. Preliminary restriction endonuclease maps of the integrated SV40 DNAs indicated that four clones contained viral DNA sequences located at a single, clone-specific chromosomal site. In three clones, the SV40 DNA sequences were located at two distinct chromosomal sites. 相似文献

DNA rearrangements in the form of deletions and duplications are found within and near integrated simian virus 40 (SV40) DNA in nonpermissive cell lines. We have found that rearrangements also occur frequently with integrated pSV2neo plasmid DNA. pSV2neo contains the entire SV40 control region, including the origin of replication, both promoters, and the enhancer sequences. Linearized plasmid DNA was electroporated into X1, an SV40-transformed mouse cell line that expresses SV40 large T antigen (T Ag) and shows very frequent rearrangements at the SV40 locus, and into LMtk-, a spontaneously transformed mouse cell line that contains no SV40 DNA. Stability was analyzed by subcloning G-418-resistant clones and examining specific DNA fragments for alterations in size. Five independent X1 clones containing pSV2neo DNA were unstable at both the neo locus and the T Ag locus. By contrast, four X1 clones containing mutants of pSV2neo with small deletions in the SV40 core origin and three X1 clones containing a different neo plasmid lacking SV40 sequences were stable at the neo locus, although they were still unstable at the T Ag locus. Surprisingly, five independent LMtk- clones containing pSV2neo DNA were unstable at the neo locus. LMtk- clones containing origin deletion mutants were more stable but were not as stable as the X1 clones containing the same plasmid DNA. We conclude that the SV40 origin of replication and early control region are sufficient viral components for the genomic instability at sites of SV40 integration and that SV40 T Ag is not required. 相似文献

Simian virus 40 (SV40)-containing DNA was rescued after the fusion of SV40-transformed VLM cells with permissive COS1 monkey cells and cloned, and prototype plasmid clones were characterized. A 2-kilobase mouse DNA fragment fused with the rescued SV40 DNA, and derived from mouse DNA flanking the single insert of SV40 DNA in VLM cells, was sequenced. Insertion of the intact rescued mouse sequence, or two nonoverlapping fragments of it, into wild-type SV40 plasmid DNA suppressed replication of the plasmid in TC7 monkey cells, although the plasmids expressed replication-competent T antigen. Rat cells were transformed with linearized wild-type SV40 plasmid DNA with or without fragments of the mouse DNA in cis. Although all of the rat cell lines expressed approximately equal amounts of T antigen and p53, transformants carrying SV40 DNA linked to either of the same two replication suppressor fragments produced significantly less free SV40 DNA after fusion with permissive cells than those transformed by SV40 DNA without a cellular insert or with a cellular insert lacking suppressor activity. The results suggest that two independent segments of cellular DNA act in cis to suppress SV40 replication in vivo, either as a plasmid or integrated in chromosomal DNA. 相似文献

Monkey cell lines have been transformed with a mixture of plasmids pSV2neo and pSLVa232N, a derivative of plasmid pSLVa232 (Portela et al., 1985b). Plasmid pSLVa232N contained the influenza virus genes encoding non-structural proteins under the control of the SV40 late promoter in pSLts1 vector that includes the SV40 ori and the tsA209 T-antigen gene. At restrictive temperature, plasmid sequences remained stably integrated in the cell genome, but upon temperature shift-down, defined circular DNA molecules were generated and amplified up to 2000-5000 copies/cell. Restriction analysis, Southern blot hybridization and partial sequencing indicate that one such episome, pC5, was derived from the integrated plasmid sequences by a homologous recombination event that led to deletion of the pBR322 sequences included in pSLVa232N. Concomitant with gene amplification, an induction of 20-65-fold in the expression of NS1 and NS2 proteins was observed after temperature shift-down. Thus, gene cloning into vector pSLts1 and transformation at restrictive temperature of cells permissive for SV40 DNA replication, appears to be a useful strategy for the controlled amplification and expression of cloned genes. 相似文献

Sequence requirements for plasmid nuclear import 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
The nuclear envelope is a major barrier for nuclear uptake of plasmids and represents one of the most significant unsolved problems of nonviral gene delivery. We have previously shown that the nuclear entry of plasmid DNA is sequence-specific, requiring a 366-bp fragment containing the SV40 origin of replication and early promoter. In this report, we show that, although fragments throughout this region can support varying degrees of nuclear import, the 72-bp repeats of the SV40 enhancer facilitate maximal transport. The functions of the promoter and the origin of replication are not needed for nuclear localization of plasmid DNA. In contrast to the import activity of the SV40 enhancer, two other strong promoter and enhancer sequences, the human cytomegalovirus (CMV) immediate-early promoter and the Rous sarcoma virus LTR, were unable to direct nuclear localization of plasmids. The inability of the CMV promoter to mediate plasmid nuclear import was confirmed by measurement of the CMV promoter-driven expression of green fluorescent protein (GFP) in microinjected cells. At times before cell division, as few as 3 to 10 copies per cell of cytoplasmically injected plasmids containing the SV40 enhancer gave significant GFP expression, while no expression was obtained with more than 1000 copies per cell of plasmids lacking the SV40 sequence. However, the levels of expression were the same for both plasmids after cell division in cytoplasmically injected cells and at all times in nuclear injected cells. Thus, the inclusion this SV40 sequence in nonviral vectors may greatly increase their ability to be transported into the nucleus, especially in nondividing cells. 相似文献

The effect of copy number, integration site, and enhancers on the expression of stably integrated exogenous DNA was examined in Chinese hamster cells. Three similar plasmids were constructed with the mouse beta maj-globin promoter fused to the galK gene either with no enhancer or with the SV40 or Harvey sarcoma virus (HaSV) enhancer. Eighteen stable cell lines were obtained and characterized with respect to plasmid copy number and galactokinase activity. At copy numbers of four or less, the enhancers showed detectable activity and a DNase I hypersensitive site was present. Above four copies, gene activity decreased as the copy number increased, the enhancer sequences were apparently inactive, and the DNase I hypersensitive site disappeared. These data suggest that, at least in this model system, when exogenous DNA is integrated as multiple head-to-tail copies, the entire multigene unit expresses poorly and inappropriately. When the same exogenous DNA integrates as a single (or low number) copy, expression appears to be relatively normal as judged by enhancer stimulation and DNase I hypersensitivity. 相似文献

The simian virus 40 (SV40)-pBR322 recombinant, pSV2, carrying the origin of SV40 replication and the gpt gene of Escherichia coli, has been stably introduced into Chinese hamster ovary hprt- cells. All gpt-transformed cell lines were found to contain one or more insertions of pSV2 sequences exclusively associated with high-molecular-weight DNA. Additional analyses showed that at least one integrated copy in each cell line retained an intact gpt gene and flanking SV40 sequences required for expression of xanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase. Most cell lines contained pSV2 sequences which had integrated with partial sequence duplication. Upon fusion with COS-1 cells, a simian cell line permissive for autonomous pSV2 replication, most gpt-transformed cell lines produced low-molecular-weight DNA molecules related to pSV2. The majority of these replicating DNAs were indistinguishable from the original transfecting plasmid in both size and restriction enzyme cleavage pattern. In addition, the recovered DNA molecules were able to confer ampicillin resistance to E. coli and to transform mouse L cells and Gpt- E. coli to a Gpt+ phenotype. These studies indicate that all of the genetic information carried by this SV40-plasmid recombinant can be introduced into and retrieved from the genome of mammalian cells. 相似文献

Electroporation was used to introduce high-molecular-weight DNA into murine hematopoietic cells and NIH3T3 cells. CCRF-CEM cells were stably transfected with SV2NEO plasmid and the genomic DNA from G-418-resistant clones (greater than 65 kb) was introduced into mouse bone marrow and NIH3T3 cells by electroporation. NEO sequences and expression were detected in the hematopoietic tissues of lethally irradiated mice, with 24% of individual spleen colonies expressing NEO. The frequency of genomic DNA transfer into NIH3T3 cells was 0.25 X 10(-3). Electroporation thus offers a powerful mode of gene transfer not only of cloned genes but also of high-molecular-weight DNA into cells. 相似文献

The hamster cell line CLAC1 originated from a tumor induced by injecting human adenovirus type 12 (Ad12) into newborn hamsters. Each cell contained about 12 copies of viral DNA colinearly integrated at two or three different sites. We have cloned and sequenced a DNA fragment comprising the site of junction between the left terminus of Ad12 DNA and cellular DNA. The first 174 nucleotides of Ad12 DNA were deleted at the site of junction. Within 40 nucleotides, there were one tri-, two tetra-, one penta-, and one heptanucleotide which were identical in the 174 deleted viral nucleotides and the cellular sequence replacing them. In addition, there were patch-type homologies ranging from octa- to decanucleotides between viral and cellular sequences. There is no evidence for a model assuming adenovirus DNA to integrate at identical cellular sites. The cellular DNA sequence corresponding to the junction fragment was cloned also from BHK21 (B3) hamster cells and sequenced. Up to the site of linkage with viral DNA, this middle repetitive cellular DNA sequence was almost identical with the equivalent sequence from CLAC1 hamster cells. Taken together with the results of previously published analyses (11, 12), the data suggest a model of viral (foreign) DNA integration by multiple short sequence homologies. Multiple sets of short patch homologies might be recognized as patterns in independent integration events. The model also accounts for the loss of terminal viral DNA sequences. 相似文献

A new series of double-selection plasmids containing recombinant genes expressing the neomycin phosphotransferase (NEO) of transposon Tn5 and mouse dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) in mammalian cells is described. Activity of the recombinant DHFR gene varied more than 50-fold, depending on the location of the simian virus 40 72 base-pair repeat or enhancer, which is part of the promoter of the NEO unit. A NEO-DHFR module with the enhancer located at the 3' end of the DHFR gene was inserted into a plasmid containing four tandem head-to-tail copies of the hepatitis B virus (HBV) genome and the new plasmid was used to transform DHFR- Chinese hamster ovary cells. In one of the cell lines obtained, an unrearranged copy of the HBV tetramer could be amplified 300-fold by increasing selective pressure with methotrexate, resulting in a proportional increase of the synthesis of HBV surface antigen. Four different mRNAs detected in the amplified cell line probably encode HBV core protein, pre-S and surface antigens, and the X protein. As a result of the DNA amplification, synthesis of HBV proteins is no longer restricted to resting cells. Integrated plasmid sequences appear to be stable during the amplification process. 相似文献

Establishment and characterization of a permanent pSV ori--transformed ataxia-telangiectasia cell line 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
A permanent ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T) cell line has been established from the fibroblast strain AT2SF after transfection with the bacterial plasmid pSV ori-, which contains replication origin-defective SV40 sequences. The original transfection frequency, as measured by transformed foci, was markedly reduced in two A-T strains when compared with either normal or xeroderma pigmentosum fibroblasts. As with SV40 virion-transformed fibroblasts, pSV ori--transformed cells entered a crisis phase, from which about one-fourth of the original clones from A-T and normal fibroblasts recovered. Both the pSV ori--transformed TAT2SF cell line and an SV40 virion-transformed AT5BI (GM5489) cell line retained their characteristic sensitivity to the lethal effects of ionizing radiation, as well as their X ray-resistant DNA synthesis. Southern blot analysis of cellular SV40 sequences demonstrated a single major integration site of pSV ori- in the AT2SF cells. In contrast, AT5BI cells transformed with SV40 virions demonstrated a high degree of heterogeneity of integrated viral sequences. Neither the TAT2SF nor the GM5489 transformed cell line contains any detectable freely replicating SV40 viral sequences, which are seen in many other semipermissive SV40-transformed cells. 相似文献

DNA fragments containing the integrated viral DNA present in the simian virus 40 (SV40)-transformed rat cell lines SVRE9 and SVRE17 were cloned in procaryotic vectors, and the DNA sequences linking SV40 and cell DNA were determined. Comparison of the DNA sequences at the SV40-cell junctions in SVRE9 and SVRE17 cells with those of a previously characterized viral insertion from SV14B cells shows that no specific viral or cellular sequences occur at SV40-cell junctions and that the cellular DNA sequences adjacent to integrated SV40 DNA do not display the direct repeat structure characteristic of transposons and retrovirus proviruses. 相似文献

Thymidine kinase-negative Friend leukemia cells were cotransfected with simian virus 40 (SV40) DNA and thymidine kinase gene DNA of herpes simplex virus type 1. The transfected thymidine kinase-positive cells were selected in HAT medium, and SV40 T-antigen expression was observed over many months in cells cultured under selective conditions, and after adaptation to normal growth medium under nonselective conditions. It was shown by Southern blot hybridization that SV40 DNA was integrated in multiple copies in the chromosomal DNA of several clones. All SV40 DNA-containing Friend leukemia cell clones analyzed were able to undergo induced erythroid differentiation. Induced cultures still expressed SV40 T-antigen to the same extent that untreated control cultures did. 相似文献
