Analysis of origin of DNA replication of human papovavirus BK.
We have analyzed the cis-acting sequence elements and properties of the origin of DNA replication of human papovavirus BK (BKV). The precise boundaries of the origin varied, depending on the cell type and the viral T antigen used for assay. The BKV minimal origin of replication consisted of an inverted repeat, T-antigen-binding site II, and a 20-base-pair AT block when assayed in monkey kidney ...
متن کاملMolecular cloning of infectious DNA from human papovavirus BK in Escherichia coli.
Recombinant DNA constructed from unit length BK virus DNA and from several defective viral forms was cloned in Escherichia coli HB101. The cloned unit length BK virus DNA retained its infectivity for human embryonic kidney cells, whereas the cloned defective DNA showed no infectivity. Restriction endonuclease digestion of cloned defective DNA and purified virus DNA indicated that many of the de...
متن کاملFunctional similarity between the early antigens of simian virus 40 and human papovavirus BK.
The functional properties of the early antigens of simian virus 40 (SV40) and human papovavirus BK (BKV) were investigated. Infection of African green monkey kidney cells with BKV permitted the bidirectional replication of an early temperature-sensitive mutant (tsA) at a nonpermissive temperature. Conceivably, an early gene product (T-antigen) of BKV can substitute functionally for the defectiv...
متن کاملUnderstanding human DNA sequence variation.
Over the past century researchers have identified normal genetic variation and studied that variation in diverse human populations to determine the amounts and distributions of that variation. That information is being used to develop an understanding of the demographic histories of the different populations and the species as a whole, among other studies. With the advent of DNA-based markers i...
متن کاملOccurrence of BK virus DNA in DNA obtained from certain human tumors.
DNA sequences from BK virus have been detected by measurements of reassociation kinetics in DNA preparations isolated from five of 12 human tumor tissues and three of four human tumor cell lines; no DNA sequences from BK virus could be found using the same assay in DNA samples obtained from nontumor tissues removed from various patients. Whether or not this association is trivial, indicative of...
