Polyoma middle tumor antigen interacts with SHC protein via the NPTY (Asn-Pro-Thr-Tyr) motif in middle tumor antigen.
Polyomavirus middle tumor antigen (MT) transforms a large number of cell types by binding to and modulating the activities of cellular proteins. Previous genetic analysis defined in MT an independent motif, NPTY (Asn-Pro-Thr-Tyr), required for transformation. This report demonstrates that NPTY is required for interaction between MT and SHC protein, a Src homology 2 (SH2)-containing protooncogen...
متن کاملImmunization against the polyoma virus-induced tumor-specific transplantation antigen by early region mutants of the virus.
To investigate the relation between the polyoma tumor-specific transplantation antigen and the virus-coded proteins, mice were immunized by inoculation of a variety of viable polyoma virus mutants and then challenged with polyoma virus-induced tumors. Two classes of early region mutants were used. One class produces a normal small T-antigen and truncated middle and large T-antigens. The second ...
متن کاملSomatic cell hybrids producing antibodies specific for the tumor antigen of simian virus 40.
We have produced somatic cell hybrids between mouse myeloma cells deficient in hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase IMP: pyrophosphate phosphoribosyltransferase; EC 2.4.2.8) and spleen cells derived from mice primed with either syngeneic or allogeneic cells transformed by simian virus 40. Such hybrids produced antibodies specific for simian virus 40 tumor (T) antigen. Only four of twelve inde...
متن کاملAntibodies specific for the carboxy- and amino-terminal regions of simian virus 40 large tumor antigen.
Antibodies specific for the amino- and carboxy-terminal portions of simian virus 40 large tumor (T) antigen were obtained by immunization of rabbits with synthetic peptides corresponding to these regions. The amino-terminal synthetic peptide has the sequence Ac-Met-Asp-Lys-Val-Leu-Asn-Arg-(Tyr). The tyrosine residue was introduced in order to couple the peptide to bovine serum albumin with bis-...
متن کاملPolyoma viral middle T-antigen is required for transformation.
To determine whether small or middle T-antigen (or both) of polyoma virus is required for transformation, we constructed mutants of recombinant plasmids which bear the viral oncogene and measured the capacity of these mutants to transform rat cells in culture. Insertion and deletion mutations in sequences encoding small and middle T-antigens (79.7, 81.3, and 82.9 map units) rendered the DNA inc...
