The genome of a new SV40 strain (SV-IMB) isolated from a rhesus monkey was completely sequenced and compared with other isolates. The results showed that the whole genome contains 5246bp, and the average identity of SV-IMB was 98.1% as compared to other SV40 isolates. Its regulatory region is composed of a complete enhancer and a defective enhancer. Amino acid changes occurred to some extent in both the large T antigen (T-Ag) and VP1 region. The findings demonstrate that the SV-IMB is a new SV40 isolate. 相似文献

一株高度变异的中国SV40分离株的全基因组序列分析 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
对SV40中国云南分离株YNQD38进行了全基因组核苷酸序列测定。覆盖了整个基因组的9个重叠的基因片段被扩增和测序,与其它SV40株进行了序列比对并基于全基因序列建立了遗传进化树。结果显示:基因组全长5125bp,基因组构成与其它SV40毒株相似,均有6个开放读码框架和1个调控区。YNQD38与已被证实高度保守的其它SV40比,全基因组核苷酸同源性仅为91.0%。在SV40的保守区VP1、VP2、VP3、小t抗原(t-ag)和部分大T抗原(不包括大T抗原C末端)区,YNQD38与其它SV40之间核苷酸同源性分别为90.7%~91.1%、91.7%~92.0%、90.2%~90.8%、92.8%~93.3%、88.5%~89.7%。在SV40的可变区大T抗原C末端(T-ag-C)编码区,YNQD38同源性更低,仅为65.7%~74.3%。YNQD38发生在保守区的核苷酸变异多为无义突变,而发生在变异区的核苷酸变异多为有义突变。YNQD38的调控区缺少一个完整的72bp增强子,这种特别的调控区的结构以前未见报道。基于整个基因组构建的进化树显示该株病毒形成了一个独特的组。以上结果表明YNQD38是目前报道的SV40中变异最大的一株,而且也是第一株被完整测序的SV40中国株。这个报道不仅为SV40中国株的基础研究提供了一个完整清楚的分子生物学资料,还对这样一株高度变异的SV40能否成为人类致病因子进行了初步探讨。 相似文献

Simian virus 40 (SV40) was isolated from the brains of three rhesus monkeys and the kidneys of two other rhesus monkeys with simian immunodeficiency virus-induced immunodeficiency. A striking feature of these five cases was the tissue specificity of the SV40 replication. SV40 was also isolated from the kidney of a Taiwanese rock macaque with immunodeficiency probably caused by type D retrovirus infection. Multiple full-length clones were derived from all six fresh SV40 isolates, and two separate regions of their genomes were sequenced: the origin (ori)-enhancer region and the coding region for the carboxy terminus of T antigen (T-ag). None of the 23 clones analyzed had two 72-bp enhancer elements as are present in the commonly used laboratory strain 776 of SV40; 22 of these 23 clones were identical in their ori-enhancer sequences, and these had only a single 72-bp enhancer element. We found no evidence for differences in ori-enhancer sequences associated with tissue-specific SV40 replication. The T-ag coding sequence that was analyzed was identical in all clones from kidney. However, significant variation was observed in the carboxy-terminal region of T-ag in SV40 isolated from brain tissues. This sequence variation was located in a region previously reported to be responsible for SV40 host range in cultured cell lines. Thus, SV40 appears to be an opportunistic pathogen in the setting of simian immunodeficiency virus-induced immunodeficiency, similarly to JC virus in human immunodeficiency virus-infected humans, the enhancer sequence organization generally attributed to SV40 is not representative of natural SV40 isolates, and sequence variation near the carboxy terminus of T-ag may play a role in tissue-specific replication of SV40. 相似文献

Most of the simian virus 40 (SV40) genome is conserved among isolates, but the noncoding regulatory region and the genomic region encoding the large T-antigen C terminus (T-ag-C) may exhibit considerable variation. We demonstrate here that SV40 isolates differ in their oncogenic potentials in Syrian golden hamsters. Experimental animals were inoculated intraperitoneally with 107 PFU of parental or recombinant SV40 viruses and were observed for 12 months to identify genetic determinants of oncogenicity. The viral regulatory region was found to exert a statistically significant influence on tumor incidence, whereas the T-ag-C played a minor role. Viruses with a single enhancer (1E) were more oncogenic than those with a two-enhancer (2E) structure. Rearrangements in the 1E viral regulatory region were detected in 4 of 60 (6.7%) tumors. Viral loads in tumors varied, with a median of 5.4 SV40 genome copies per cell. Infectious SV40 was rescued from 15 of 37 (40%) cell lines established from tumors. Most hamsters with tumors and many without tumors produced antibodies to T antigen. All viruses displayed similar transforming frequencies in vitro, suggesting that differences in oncogenic potential in vivo were due to host responses to viral infection. This study shows that SV40 strains differ in their biological properties, suggests that SV40 replicates to some level in hamsters, and indicates that the outcome of an SV40 infection may depend on the viral strain present. 相似文献

Simian virus 40 (SV40) DNAs in brain tissue and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of eight simian immunodeficiency virus-infected rhesus monkeys with SV40 brain disease were analyzed. We report the detection, cloning, and identification of five new SV40 strains following a quadruple testing-verification strategy. SV40 genomes with archetypal regulatory regions (containing a duplication within the G/C-rich regulatory region segment and a single 72-bp enhancer element) were recovered from seven animal brains, two tissues of which also contained viral genomes with nonarchetypal regulatory regions (containing a duplication within the G/C-rich regulatory region segment as well as a variable duplication within the enhancer region). In contrast, PBMC DNAs from five of six animals had viral genomes with both regulatory region types. It appeared, based on T-antigen variable-region sequences, that nonarchetypal virus variants arose de novo within each animal. The eighth animal exclusively yielded a new type of SV40 strain (SV40-K661), containing a protoarchetypal regulatory region (lacking a duplication within the G/C-rich segment of the regulatory region and containing one 72-bp element in the enhancer region), from both brain tissue and PBMCs. The presence of SV40 in PBMCs suggests that hematogenous spread of viral infection may occur. An archetypal version of a virus similar to SV40 reference strain 776 (a kidney isolate) was recovered from one brain, substantiating the idea that SV40 is neurotropic as well as kidney-tropic. Indirect evidence suggests that maternal-infant transmission of SV40 may have occurred in one animal. These findings provide new insights for human polyomavirus disease. 相似文献

A phylogenetic analysis of 14 complete simian virus 40 (SV40) genomes was conducted in order to determine strain relatedness and the extent of genetic variation. This analysis included infectious isolates recovered between 1960 and 1999 from primary cultures of monkey kidney cells, from contaminated poliovaccines and an adenovirus seed stock, from human malignancies, and from transformed human cells. Maximum-parsimony and distance methods revealed distinct SV40 clades. However, no clear patterns of association between genotype and viral source were apparent. One clade (clade A) is derived from strain 776, the reference strain of SV40. Clade B contains isolates from poliovaccines (strains 777 and Baylor), from monkeys (strains N128, Rh911, and K661), and from human tumors (strains SVCPC and SVMEN). Thus, adaptation is not essential for SV40 survival in humans. The C terminus of the T-antigen (T-ag-C) gene contains the highest proportion of variable sites in the SV40 genome. An analysis based on just the T-ag-C region was highly congruent with the whole-genome analysis; hence, sequencing of just this one region is useful in strain identification. Analysis of an additional 16 strains for which only the T-ag-C gene was sequenced indicated that further SV40 genetic diversity is likely, resulting in a provisional clade (clade C) that currently contains strains associated with human tumors and human strain PML-1. Four other polymorphic regions in the genome were also identified. If these regions were analyzed in conjunction with the T-ag-C region, most of the phylogenetic signal could be captured without complete genome sequencing. This report represents the first whole-genome approach to establishing phylogenetic relatedness among different strains of SV40. It will be important in the future to develop a more complete catalog of SV40 variation in its natural monkey host, to determine if SV40 strains from different clades vary in biological or pathogenic properties, and to identify which SV40 strains are transmissible among humans. 相似文献

Structure of SV40 wild type virus genome differing from the well known 776 strain has been characterized. This particular strain (SV40) was used previously for viral chromatin analysis. We show here that SV40 strain differs from 776 strain by deletion in the beginning of the "late" region (enhancer). Restriction nucleases mapping and nucleotide sequencing through this region reveal the absence of one full-length copy of 72 bp repeat. 相似文献

We have previously isolated long-range acting enhancer elements from the HeLa genome by functional selection. In this report, the structural and functional characteristics of one (GA1) of the enhancers are reported. By cloning various restriction fragments and by deletion mutagenesis, the activity of GA1 was located in a 230-bp region. The nucleotide sequence of GA1 and genomic Southern blot analysis indicated that GA1 is derived from human papilloma virus (HPV) 18 DNA that had been integrated into the HeLa genome. The enhancer is located in the non-coding region of the HPV 18 genome. The HPV 18 enhancer consists of two functional domains, both of which have full enhancer activity in HeLa cells. The enhancer does not contain enhancer core sequences but contains several blocks of potential Z-DNA sequence. Like SV40 and polyoma virus enhancers, the activity of the HPV 18 enhancer was repressed by adenovirus E1a products. The HPV 18 enhancer shows a narrow cell type specificity: it is active in some cervical carcinoma cell lines, but inactive in all non-cervical cells except for one neuroblastoma cell line. These results suggest that the HPV 18 enhancer plays an important role in regulation of the viral genes. 相似文献

Studies were performed to ascertain the relationship of human papovavirus JC to BK virus and to simian virus 40 (SV40) by further restriction endonuclease analysis and by DNA-DNA competition hybridization on membrane filters. Form I DNA extracted from two new isolates from cases of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy of human papovaviruses that were JC-like in their antigenic properties were found to yield restriction endonuclease fragmentation patterns similar to those of prototypic JC virus DNA and different from those of BK or SV40. Form I DNA preparations of JC and BK viruses were found to be related to each other and to SV40 DNA to a similar extent, with JC and BK virus DNAs containing sequences homologous to both early and late regions of the SV40 genome. The relatedness in each comparison was less than 50%, and heterologous hybrids between either JC or BK and SV40 DNAs were found to be less stable than homologous SV40-SV40 hybrids in high concentrations of formamide, suggesting substantial mismatch within homologous regions, to the extent of 15 to 30%. The new JC-like isolates were also studied in competition hybridization reactions with SV40 DNA and yielded results similar to those obtained with JC virus. 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

We have studied the effect of the SV40 T antigen on expression from human globin promoters fused to the bacterial chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) gene and compared its effect with the SV40 enhancer and the adenovirus E1A protein. We have observed that expression of p epsilon GLCAT and p beta GLCAT (the epsilon-globin or beta-globin promoter linked to the CAT gene) was significantly stimulated when cotransfected with a cloned T antigen plasmid into CV-1 cells, indicating that trans-activation of the globin promoters was mediated by SV40 T antigen. Transfection of the p beta GLCAT-SV (p beta GLCAT containing the SV40 enhancer element) into CV-1 cells resulted in a 50-60-fold increase in CAT activity as compared to p beta GLCAT (no enhancer). However, cotransfection of the p beta GLCAT-SV with the cloned T antigen resulted in an additional increase of CAT expression, which suggests that T antigen and the SV40 enhancer activate globin gene expression independently. We found that T antigen but not E1A could further stimulate the expression of an enhancer-containing plasmid in CV-1 cells; whereas E1A but not T antigen could further stimulate p epsilon GLCAT expression in COS-1 cells which constitutively express the SV40 T antigen. These results suggest that T antigen and E1A also act independently. Deletion analysis showed that the minimum sequence required for a detectable level of stimulation of the epsilon-globin promoter by T antigen is 177 bp 5' to the cap site, suggesting that the target sequences for response to T antigen do not reside in the canonical 100 bp promoter region, but rather reside in sequences further upstream, and therefore the cellular factors interacting with T antigen are not the TATA or CAT box binding proteins, but the proteins interacting with upstream regulatory sequences. 相似文献

A sensitive gel retention assay has been utilized to detect proteins from uninfected Hela nuclei which interact with the adenovirus type 2 enhancer. This assay has been employed to monitor fractionation of nuclear extracts. Three enhancer binding factors were resolved by chromatography on DEAE-Sepharose and one of the factors was further purified by chromatography on heparin-Sepharose. DNase protection experiments have shown that the heparin-Sepharose fraction contains a factor which binds predominantly to the conserved sequence GTGGAAATTT present at position 160 in the adenovirus type 2 genome and found in many viral and cellular enhancers. Protection of this sequence from DNase I digestion was abolished by competition with a synthetic duplex oligonucleotide spanning bases 144-181. This region corresponds to the sequence defined by Hen et al. as possessing enhancer function. Competition experiments indicated that the enhancer binding factor also bound, albeit with reduced affinity, to multiple sites in the Ela upstream region located between positions 192 and 353. Within the sequences which compete are regions with homology to the high affinity site at position 160. The enhancer binding factor also binds with high affinity to sequences within the SV40 enhancer demonstrating that this factor interacts with sequences common to both the adenovirus and SV40 enhancers. 相似文献
