Bovine papillomavirus (BPV) DNA is maintained as an episome with a constant copy number in transformed cells and is stably inherited. To study BPV replication we have developed a transient replication assay based on a highly efficient electroporation procedure. Using this assay we have determined that in the context of the viral genome two of the viral open reading frames, E1 and E2, are required for replication. Furthermore we show that when produced from expression vectors in the absence of other viral gene products, the full length E2 transactivator polypeptide and a 72 kd polypeptide encoded by the E1 open reading frame in its entirety, are both necessary and sufficient for replication BPV in C127 cells. 相似文献

We have previously shown that the early region of the bovine papillomavirus type 1 genome contains two nonoverlapping segments that can independently induce the morphological transformation of cultured cells. The transforming gene from the 5' end of the early region is encoded by the E6 open reading frame. The second transforming segment was previously localized to a 2.3-kilobase fragment (2.3T) from the 3' end of the early region. To determine which of the four open reading frames (E2, E3, E4, and E5) located within 2.3T encodes a transforming gene, we have now introduced a series of insertion and deletion mutations into a clone (pHLB1) in which 2.3T is activated by the Harvey viral long terminal repeat, and we tested the mutants for their ability to induce focal transformation. Our results indicate that the E5 open reading frame, which could encode a low-molecular-weight hydrophobic peptide, is required for pHLB1-induced transformation of NIH 3T3 cells, but that the E2, E3, and E4 open reading frames are not. 相似文献

E1 is the largest open reading frame (ORF) of bovine papillomavirus type 1 (BPV-1) and is highly conserved among all papillomaviruses, maintaining its size, amino acid composition, and location in the viral genome with respect to other early genes. Multiple viral replication functions have been mapped to the E1 ORF of BPV-1, and evidence suggested that more than one protein was encoded by this ORF. We previously identified a small protein (M) whose gene consists of two exons, one encoded by the 5' end of the E1 ORF. We show here that a 68-kilodalton (kDa) phosphoprotein made from the E1 ORF can be detected in BPV-1-transformed cells, and we present evidence that this protein is encoded by sequences colinear with the entire E1 ORF. The full-length E1 protein immunoprecipitated from virally transformed cells and identified by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis comigrates with a protein expressed from a recombinant DNA construct capable of producing only the complete E1 protein. In addition, two different antisera directed against polypeptides encoded from either the 3' or the 5' end of the E1 ORF both recognize the full-length E1 product. A mutation converting the first methionine codon in the ORF to an isoleucine codon abolishes BPV-1 plasmid replication and E1 protein production. Consistent with the notion that this methionine codon is the start site for E1, a mutant with a termination codon placed after the splice donor at nucleotide 1235 in E1 produces a truncated protein with the molecular mass predicted from the primary sequence as well as the previously identified M protein. When visualized by immunostaining, the E1 protein expressed in COS cells is localized to the cell nucleus. A high degree of similarity exists between the BPV-1 E1 protein and polyomavirus and simian virus 40 large-T antigens in regions of the T antigens that bind ATP. We show by ATP affinity labeling that the E1 protein produced in COS cells binds ATP and that this activity is abolished by a point mutation which converts the codon for proline 434 to serine. Furthermore, this mutation renders the viral genome defective for DNA replication, suggesting that the ATP-binding activity of E1 is necessary for its putative role in viral DNA replication.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is the etiological agent of Kaposi's sarcoma. The open reading frame (K9) of KSHV encodes viral interferon regulatory factor 1 (vIRF1), which functions as a repressor of interferon-mediated signal transduction. The amino-terminal region of vIRF1 displays significant homology to the DNA-binding domain of cellular interferon regulatory factors, supporting the theory that the protein interacts with specific DNA sequences. Here, we identify the consensus sequence of vIRF1-binding sites from a pool of random oligonucleotides. Moreover, our data show that vIRF1 interacts with the K3:viral dihydrofolate reductase:viral interleukin 6 promoter region in the KSHV genome. 相似文献

The 23-kDa protein encoded by the 5' segment of the E1 open reading frame of bovine papillomavirus type 1 (BPV1) was previously ascribed a negative regulatory function for the replication of viral plasmid DNA. However, results from recent functional and biochemical studies do not readily support this genetic assignment. Therefore, we have reassessed the role of this protein in papillomavirus DNA replication by using a mutant of BPV1 which is unable to express this E1 protein. This mutant viral DNA was found to replicate extrachromosomally with stability and copy number per cell similar to those of wild-type plasmid DNA. Thus, the absence of expression of the 23-kDa E1 protein did not lead to deregulated viral plasmid replication. We conclude that the 23-kDa E1 protein is nonessential for stable plasmid replication. 相似文献

In order to assign specific functions to individual gene products encoded by adenovirus type 5 early region 4 (E4), we have constructed and analyzed a set of mutant viruses that express individual E4 open reading frames or combinations of open reading frames. The results of these analyses demonstrate that the gene products of E4 open reading frames 3 and 6 have redundant effects in viral lytic infection. These E4 products independently augment viral DNA replication, viral late protein synthesis, the shutoff of host cell protein synthesis, and the production of infectious virus. The product of open reading frame 6 is more efficient in the regulation of these processes than is the product of open reading frame 3. The regulation of viral DNA replication and the control of viral and cellular protein synthesis appear to be separable functions associated with both E4 gene products. The role of early region 4 in adeno-associated virus helper function, however, is mediated only by the product of open reading frame 6. Finally, we demonstrate that E4 mutant viruses display a multiplicity-leakiness phenotype which is consistent with the regulatory role that this region plays in viral infection. 相似文献

Transformation-defective mutant of adenovirus type 5 containing a single altered E1a mRNA species. 总被引:45,自引:19,他引:26

A mutant of adenovirus type 5 containing an octanucleotide insert in region E1a of the viral genome was constructed. The insert was present in only one (13s) of the three overlapping mRNA's synthesized from this region. The insert was within the sequences removed by RNA splicing during the production of the other two nRNA's. The insertion resulted in a shift in the translational reading frame of the 13s mRNA and the probable premature termination of translation. The mutant was defective for viral DNA replication in HeLa cells and the transformation of rat embryo and baby rat kidney cells, indicating that a product encoded by the 13s nRNA is required for these two processes. Other early regions of the genome were expressed in HeLa cells infected by this mutant although in some cases the expression was decreased as compared with wild-type-infected cells. 相似文献

Oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis was used to construct a nonsense mutation in open reading frame (ORF) E2 of bovine papillomavirus DNA. A single base substitution mutation was constructed which converted a TAC codon into a TAG amber stop codon at a position in the ORF that did not overlap with any other viral ORFs. Full-length viral DNA containing the mutation induced only approximately 2% of the transformed foci of mouse C127 cells that were induced by wild-type DNA. In a different transformation assay, approximately one-half of the C127 cells which had acquired the mutant DNA gave rise to colonies containing at least some cells with transformed morphology. The constructed mutation was maintained in cell lines derived from cells which had acquired the mutant viral DNA, but the viral DNA appeared to be integrated into the host cell genome. Genetic mapping experiments proved that the constructed amber mutation caused the decrease in focus-forming activity and the integration of the mutant viral DNA. These results suggest that ORF E2 encodes a protein which is involved either directly or indirectly in some aspects of oncogenic transformation by bovine papillomavirus and in maintaining the viral DNA as a plasmid in transformed cells. 相似文献

We have isolated a portion of the uridine diphosphate N-acetyl-D-glucosamine:dolichol phosphate N-acetyl-glucosamine-1-phosphate transferase gene (GTR2) from the genome of a tunicamycin-resistant clonal Chinese hamster ovary cell line, 3E11. The genomic fragment was selected by its hybridization to the yeast ALG-7 gene at low stringency. A 2.46-kilobase cDNA was isolated from a library prepared from 3E11 mRNA and probed with GTR2. The cDNA contained an open reading frame that encodes a protein of 408 amino acids with a molecular mass of 44.9 kDa. This protein was 43% identical in amino acid sequence to the protein of 448 amino acids encoded by the ALG-7 gene. The GTR2 gene fragment contained sequences for four exons coding for the carboxyl-terminal half of the protein. Transferase DNA sequences in 3E11 cells were 12-fold elevated over wild-type cells and 25-fold elevated when 3E11 cells were grown in the presence of tunicamycin. Transferase RNA levels in 3E11 cells were also elevated over wild-type levels but appeared unchanged by the presence of tunicamycin in the medium. 相似文献
