Immunocytochemical localization of simian virus 40 T antigen with peroxidase-labeled antibody fragments.
نویسندگان
چکیده
T antigen was localized in simian virus 40 lytically infected and transformed cells by Fab' antibody conjugates at the ultrastructural level. This virus-specific protein appeared in the cytoplasm of permissive cells as early as 3 h after infection. At later time intervals, the T antigen was localized in both the cytoplasm and nucleus and finally (24 h) in the nucleus. These results suggest a synthesis of T antigen on cytoplasmic ribosomes, with subsequent transfer to the nucleus.

Immunocytochemical localization of T antigen in cells of BK virus-induced hamster brain tumor.
The localization of both the large T and small t tumor (T) antigens in cultured cells (Vn 12 cells) of hamster brain tumors induced with BK virus (BKV), a new human papovavirus, was studied by an enzyme labelled antibody method at both the light and electron microscopic levels. Under the light microscope, BKV T antigen was observed in the nucleus, except for the nucleoli, of cells in interphase...

Horseradish peroxidase-labeled antibody was used for light and electron microscopic localization of reovirus antigen in tissue culture. Reaction product in infected cells was easily detected in the cytoplasm, and the procedure was as sensitive as the fluorescent-antibody technique. At the electron microscopic level, infected and enzyme-labeled antibody-treated cells showed accumulations of reac...
متن کاملMonoclonal antibody analysis of simian virus 40 small t-antigen expression in infected and transformed cells.
The monoclonal antibody PAb280 binds to small t antigen but not to large T antigen. Its binding site within the unique region of small t antigen was localized by studying its reaction with simian virus 40 mutants, other papovaviruses, and bacterial expression vectors coding for fragments of small t antigen. The antibody was used to define the cellular location of small t antigen by immunocytoch...

Monkey and mouse cells producing simian virus 40 small t antigen in the absence of clearly detectable intact or truncated large T antigens were subjected to indirect immunofluorescence and biochemical cell compartment analyses. Results revealed specific immunofluorescence and small t polypeptide in both the nucleus and cytoplasm of these cells.

The immunoperoxidase technique was used in an electron microscopy study to localize the virions of herpes zoster virus and simian virus 40 in cell cultures. Intranuclear and intracytoplasmic virions of herpes zoster virus were easily and specifically identified due to intense staining by the finely granular, black reaction product. With simian virus 40, intranuclear virions were not stained, wh...
