Simian virus 40 (SV40) deletion mutants dlA2459 and dlA2475 express T antigens that lack the normal carboxy terminus. These mutants are called host range/helper function (hr/hf) mutants because they form plaques at 37 degrees C on BSC-1 and Vero monkey kidney cell lines but not on CV-1p monkey kidney cells. Wild-type SV40 can provide a helper function to permit growth of human adenoviruses in monkey kidney cells; the hr/hf mutants cannot. Progeny yields of hr/hf mutants are also cold sensitive in all cell lines tested. Patterns of viral macromolecular synthesis in three cell lines (Vero, BSC-1, and CV-1) at three …
Linker Insertion Mutants Of Simian Virus 40 Large T Antigen That Show Trans-Dominant Interference With Wild-Type Large T Antigen Map To Multiple Sites Within The T-Antigen Gene., Jiyue Y. Zhu, Charles N. Cole
Linker Insertion Mutants Of Simian Virus 40 Large T Antigen That Show Trans-Dominant Interference With Wild-Type Large T Antigen Map To Multiple Sites Within The T-Antigen Gene., Jiyue Y. Zhu, Charles N. Cole
Dartmouth Scholarship
Linker insertion mutants affecting the simian virus 40 (SV40) large tumor (T) antigen were constructed by inserting a 12-base-pair oligonucleotide linker into restriction endonuclease cleavage sites located within the early region of SV40. One mutant, with the insertion at amino acid 5, was viable in CV-1p and BSC-1 cells, indicating that sequences very close to the amino terminus of large T could be altered without affecting the lytic infection cycle of SV40. All other mutants affecting large T were not viable. In complementation assays between the linker insertion mutants and either a late-gene mutant, dlBC865, or a host range/helper function …
