The genetic analysis of the papillomaviruses has been hampered by the lack of mutants conditionally defective for viral biological activities. We report here the construction and characterization of a temperature-sensitive papillomavirus mutant. The mutation is predicted to insert the sequence Pro-Arg-Ser-Arg into the N-terminal half of the bovine papillomavirus type 1 (BPV1) ORF E2 protein, the major viral regulatory protein. The cloned mutant viral DNA displays temperature-sensitive defects in the induction of focus formation in mouse C127 cells, in its establishment as an extrachromosomal plasmid and in transactivation of a BPV1 enhancer. Genetic experiments confirm that this pleiotropic phenotype is caused by the insertion mutation in ORF E2 and that the transformation and replication defects of the mutant at 37 degrees C are corrected in trans by wild-type E2 gene activity. Most cell lines stably transformed by the mutant at 32.5 degrees C display a reduced ability to overgrow a monolayer of normal cells following temperature shift to 37 degrees C and the mutant viral DNA after temperature shift is present in decreased copy number and/or in an integrated state. These results provide strong genetic evidence that continued ORF E2 activity is required for maintenance of BPV1-induced transformation and for normal viral DNA replication. 相似文献

Open reading frame (ORF) E4 is a 353-base-pair ORF of bovine papillomavirus type 1. To determine the biological activities of this ORF in mouse C127 cells, we analyzed the effects of two constructed mutations which are predicted to prevent synthesis of ORF E4 proteins while leaving the amino acid sequence encoded by the overlapping ORF E2 unchanged. Neither mutation interfered with the abilities of the mutants to efficiently induce focus formation, induce growth in soft agarose, or transactivate an inducible bovine papillomavirus type 1 enhancer. Also, neither mutation prevented establishment of the viral DNA as an extrachromosomal plasmid in transformed cells. These results suggest that ORF E4 proteins are not required for these biological activities, and they are consistent with the observation of others (J. Doorbar, D. Campbell, R. J. A. Grand, and P. H. Gallimore, EMBO J. 5:355-362, 1986) that the ORF E4 protein of a human papillomavirus is associated with late gene expression during papilloma formation. 相似文献

A series of mutations in open reading frames (ORFs) E6 and E7 of bovine papillomavirus type 1 (BPV1) was constructed to analyze the roles of these ORFs in transformation of mouse C127 cells. The mutations were designed to prevent synthesis of specific proteins encoded by these genes. None of the mutations caused a decrease in the focus-forming activity of the full-length viral genome or in the ability of the viral DNA to replicate as a high-copy-number plasmid. Analysis of these mutants in the absence of a functional BPV1 E5 gene revealed a weak focus-forming activity encoded by ORF E6. Mutations preventing synthesis of the E6 protein did cause defects in anchorage-independent growth and tumorigenicity of transfected and transformed cells. However, a frameshift mutation between the first and second ATG codons of ORF E6 did not inhibit induction of colony formation, suggesting that translation from the first methionine codon is not required. Mutations that inactivated ORF E7 or E6/E7 individually did not inhibit induction of colony formation in agarose. However, a defect in this activity was caused by simultaneous disruption of both ORF E7 and ORF E6/E7 when they were expressed from the full-length viral genome but not when they were expressed under the control of a retrovirus long terminal repeat. These results suggest that translation of both ORF E6 and the 3' end of ORF E7 is required for efficient induction of anchorage-independent growth by the intact BPV1 genome. 相似文献

We investigated the transforming activity of human papillomavirus type 8 (HPV8) by expressing all early open reading frames from a heterologous promoter in different rodent fibroblast lines. Morphological transformation was observed only in G418-selected mouse C127 and Rat 1 cells containing an intact E6-coding region. E6 of HPV8 did not transform NIH 3T3 cells as did E6 of bovine papillomavirus type 1. C127 cells transformed by E6 were anchorage independent and had a reduced serum requirement but did not form tumors in nude mice. E7 of HPV8 showed no transforming potential, in contrast to E7 of HPV18 and HPV16. It was, however, able to complement an E7 mutant of bovine papillomavirus type 1 with a defect in high-copy-number DNA maintenance. The data indicate that the expression of the HPV8 E6 open reading frame is sufficient to induce morphological transformation in rodent fibroblasts, whereas E7 is involved in the replication of the viral DNA. 相似文献

We report that the genomes of reindeer papillomavirus (RPV), European elk papillomavirus (EEPV), and deer papillomavirus (DPV) contain a short conserved translational open reading frame (ORF), E9, which is located between the E5 ORF and the early polyadenylation site. In RPV, DPV, and EEPV, E9 ORFs have the potential to encode extremely hydrophobic polypeptides of approximately 40 amino acids. In mouse C127 cells transformed by EEPV and RPV, there exists a unique, abundant mRNA species of approximately 700 nucleotides which has the capacity to encode an E9 polypeptide. This mRNA is transcribed from a previously unrecognized promoter at position 4030 in the EEPV genome. The EEPV E9 ORF exhibits weak transforming activity in C127 cells and primary rat embryo fibroblasts. We also show that EEPV E5 is the major oncogene in the EEPV genome when assayed in C127 cells, although it is less efficient in transformation than the E5 genes of bovine papillomavirus type 1, DPV, and RPV. 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

The establishment of bovine papillomavirus type 1 in somatic mammalian cells is mediated by extrachromosomal replication and stable maintenance of the viral genome as a multicopy nuclear plasmid. Previous studies indicated the requirement of viral gene expression for bovine papillomavirus type 1 replication and plasmid maintenance (M. Lusky and M. R. Botchan, Cell 36:391-401, 1984; Turek et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 79:7914-7918, 1982). To define the viral genes which are necessary for this process, we constructed a series of specific mutations within the viral genome and assayed the resulting mutants for their ability to replicate extrachromosomally in mouse C127 cells. We report here that the bovine papillomavirus type 1 trans-acting replication factors were encoded by at least two distinct viral genes since the mutants fell into two complementation groups, rep and cop. Mutants (rep-) affecting the E1 open reading frame (ORF) failed to replicate bovine papillomavirus type 1 DNA extrachromosomally and would integrate into chromosomal DNA. We suggest that this gene product is one of the factors required to specifically preclude the integration event. Mutants (cop-) affecting the E7 ORF were maintained in the extrachromosomal state; however, the copy number of the mutant genomes was reduced 100-fold compared with that of wild-type DNA. Analysis of single-cell subclones showed that each cell contained the mutant genomes at a copy number of one to two, indicating that the cop- phenotype did not reflect a simple segregation defect. We propose that the gene defined by mutations in the E7 ORF played a crucial role in stably maintaining the copy number of the viral plasmid at high levels. Genomes with mutations in the cop and rep complementation groups, when cotransfected, rescued the wild-type phenotype, extrachromosomal replication with a high, stable copy number for both types of plasmids. Therefore, the gene products acted in trans, and the mutations were recessive to the wild-type functions. One specific rep- mutant showed a 30-fold-increased transformation efficiency when compared with that of the wild-type genome. In addition, morphological transformation mediated by the cop- mutants appeared to be unstable. These results imply that either or both of the replication functions played some role in regulating the expression of the viral transforming functions. 相似文献

Spontaneous amplification of bovine papillomavirus type 1 DNA occurs following a prolonged period of serum starvation of wild-type virus-transformed C127 cell lines and is associated with abundant viral E2 protein synthesis and a concomitant induction of viral oncogene (E5 and E6) expression. We show here that a subpopulation of the permissive cells incorporate bromo-deoxyuridine under conditions of cell growth arrest (serum starvation), whereas DNA synthesis is suppressed in the resting population of nonpermissive cells. Flow cytometric measurements of the cellular DNA content of the permissive cell population indicated that it contained predominantly a 4n DNA content, suggesting that these cells were blocked in the G2 phase of the cell cycle. In keeping with the hypothesis that viral DNA amplification is associated with the induction of a cellular S phase, we observed a specific induction of expression of two cell proliferation-related cellular antigens (PCNA and Ki67) in a subpopulation of permissive cells. C127 cell lines transformed by an E5-minus bovine papillomavirus type 1 mutant, which was competent for autonomous plasmid replication in mitotic cells, were completely defective for the induction of DNA synthesis and mutant viral DNA amplification under conditions of serum starvation. Moreover, the E5 protein is shown by immunofluorescence analysis to be expressed at a high level specifically in the permissive cell population. These results imply a dual role for the viral E5 protein in the C127 model system, both as a transforming protein and as a factor required for the induction of viral DNA amplification in postmitotic cells. We suggest that E5 acts at an early step in the induction of this process in C127 cells and may be required to turn on host cell DNA synthesis as a prerequisite for viral DNA amplification. 相似文献

Human papillomavirus type 6 (HPV-6) is the etiologic agent of genital warts and recurrent respiratory papillomatosis. We are investigating the mechanism by which this virus stimulates cell proliferation during infection. In this paper, we report that the E5a gene of HPV-6c, an independent isolate of HPV-11, is capable of transforming NIH 3T3 cells. The E5a open reading frame (ORF) was expressed under the control of the mouse metallothionein promoter in the expression vector pMt.neo.1, which also contains the gene for G418 resistance. Transfected cells were selected for G418 resistance and analyzed for a transformed phenotype. The transformed NIH 3T3 cells overgrew a confluent monolayer, had an accelerated generation time, and were anchorage independent. In contrast, E5a did not induce foci in C127 cells, but C127 cells expressing E5a did form small colonies in suspension. The presence of the 12-kilodalton E5a gene product in the transformed NIH 3T3 cells was shown by immunoprecipitation and was localized predominantly to nuclei by an immunoperoxidase assay. A mutation in the E5a ORF was engineered to terminate translation. This mutant was defective for transformation, demonstrating that translation of the E5a ORF is required for biological activity. This is the first demonstration of a transforming oncogene in HPV-6, and the differential activity of E5a in these two cell lines should facilitate future investigations on the mechanism of transformation. 相似文献

The bovine papillomavirus E2 protein tethers the viral genomes to mitotic chromosomes in dividing cells through binding to the C-terminal domain (CTD) of Brd4. Expression of the Brd4-CTD competes the binding of E2 to endogenous Brd4 in cells. Here we extend our previous study that identified Brd4 as the E2 mitotic chromosome receptor to show that Brd4-CTD expression released the viral DNA from mitotic chromosomes in BPV-1 transformed cells. Furthermore, stable expression of Brd4-CTD enhanced the frequency of morphological reversion of BPV-1 transformed C127 cells resulting in the complete elimination of the viral DNA in the resulting flat revertants. 相似文献

Microinjection of recombinant plasmids containing bovine papillomavirus type 1 DNA into the nuclei of mouse C127 cells results in the stimulation of cellular DNA synthesis. Mutations in the viral E2 gene have no apparent effect on this activity even though the same mutations prevent efficient C127 cell focus formation and inhibit transactivation by this gene. 相似文献

A papillomavirus was isolated from the epithelial layer of a cutaneous fibropapilloma on a Swedish reindeer (Rangifer tarandus). Reindeer papillomavirus (RPV) is morphologically indistinguishable from other papillomaviruses, but the restriction enzyme cleavage pattern of its genome is different. No sequence homology was detected between RPV DNA and the DNAs of bovine papillomavirus type 1 (BPV-1) and avian papillomavirus when hybridization was performed under stringent conditions. However, the RPV genome hybridized to the genome of the European elk papillomavirus and the deer papillomavirus under stringent conditions. A physical map of the RPV genome was constructed, and selected regions of the genome, covering the open translational reading frame (ORF) E5 and part of the E1 and L1 ORFs, were studied by nucleotide sequence analysis. The results made it possible to align the RPV genome with the genome of BPV-1. The E5 ORF of RPV has the potential to encode a 44-amino-acid, exceptionally hydrophobic polypeptide which is very similar to the E5 polypeptides of BPV-1 and deer and European elk papillomaviruses. RPV is oncogenic for hamsters and transforms C127 mouse cells in vitro. Several virus-specific mRNAs were detected in RPV-transformed C127 cells. 相似文献
