The adenovirus E4 promoter was replaced by a synthetic promoter composed of a minimal TATA box and five consensus 17-mer yeast GAL4-binding-site elements. The viral vectors, which also contained human factor IX (hFIX) cDNA driven by Rous sarcoma virus long terminal repeat in the E1 region, were then constructed and expanded in 293 cells permanently expressing GAL4/VP16 fusion protein. Viral replication and expression of adenovirus E4 genes and late genes (hexon and fiber) were evaluated in vitro in the human lung carcinoma cell line H1299. Viral replication and viral gene expression were dramatically reduced in the cells transduced by vectors with a replaced E4 promoter compared to the levels in the cells transduced by vectors with the wild-type E4 promoter. The levels of transgene (hFIX) expression remained similar between vectors with or without E4 promoter replacement. These results indicate that diminution of viral gene expression and viral replication is achievable by promoter replacement. 相似文献

The interferon (IFN)-activated human 2',5'-oligo(A) synthetase E gene contains 11 RNA starts and lacks TATA and CAAT signals. DNA sequences around the promoter make the expression of the chloramphenicol acetyltransferase gene (CAT) inducible over 20-fold by IFN. A 72-base-pair segment (E-IRS) immediately upstream of the RNA starts was defined as being required for IFN-activated expression of the E-gene promoter-CAT constructs and acts in a position-independent manner. It also confers IFN-activated enhancement to the herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase promoter. On this promoter, the 5' part of the E-IRS functions as a constitutive enhancer, while the last 16 base pairs of the E-IRS is sufficient to give IFN-induced expression. On the E-gene promoter, the constitutive enhancer and the IFN-activated sequence are both needed but can be separated. In addition, promoter competition experiments indicate a third regulatory region which helps to repress expression of the E gene in uninduced cells. 相似文献

The effects of trans-acting factors and transfected DNA stability on promoter activity were examined with chloramphenicol acetyl transferase (CAT) transient expression analysis. With cotransfection into CV-1P and HeLa cells, simian virus 40 T antigen, adenovirus E1a, and herpes-virus IE proteins were compared for their ability to trans-activate a variety of eucaryotic promoters constructed into CAT plasmids. T antigen and the IE protein were promiscuous activators of all the promoters tested [the simian virus 40 late promoter, the adenovirus E3 promoter, the alpha 2(I) collagen promoter, and the promoter of the Rous sarcoma virus long terminal repeat]. Conversely the E1a protein was specific, activating only the adenovirus E3 promoter and suppressing the basal activity of the other promoters. This specificity of activation by E1a contrasted with the high activity generated by all of the promoter-CAT plasmids when transfected into 293 cells, which endogenously produce E1a protein. Examination of transfected 293 cells determined that they stabilized much greater amounts of plasmid DNA than any other cells tested (CV-1P, COS, NIH-3T3, KB). Thus the high activity of nonadenovirus promoter-CAT plasmids in 293 cells results from the cumulative effect of basal promoter activity from a very large number of gene copies, not from E1a activation. This conclusion was supported by similar transfection analysis of KB cell lines which endogenously produce E1a protein. These cells stabilize plasmid DNA at a level comparable to that of CV-1P cells and, in agreement with the CV-1P cotransfection results, did not activate a nonadenovirus promoter-CAT plasmid. These results indicate that the stability of plasmid DNA must be considered when transient gene expression is being compared between cell lines. The use of relative plasmid copy numbers for the standardization of transient expression results is discussed. 相似文献
