چکیده

Histones H3 and H4 derived from transforming wild-type polyoma and simian virus 40 particles show extensive acetylation compared to the histones of the host cells. The same histone fractions derived from nontransforming host range mutants of polyoma virus fail to show this high degree of acetylation.

Localization of gene functions in polyoma virus DNA.

Polyoma virus mutants of four functionally distinct groups have been mapped by the marker rescue technique using restriction enzyme fragments of wild-type viral DNA. Nontransforming host-range mutants map in the proximal part of the early region of the viral genome. The same DNA fragment that restores a normal host range also restores normal transforming ability to these mutants. ts-25D, a temp...

Immunization 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 ...

P 110: Evaluating the Role of Histone Hyper Acetylation in Induction of Neuroinflammation

Microglia is the effector cell of the innate immune system in central nervous system (CNS). These cells mediate inflammatory responses in injuries. Besides external factors, microglial function is also controlled by internal factors, including epigenetic regulations. Mechanisms of epigenetic regulation mainly consist of DNA methylation, histone modifications and use of non-coding RNAs. Recent s...

Host range mutants of polyoma virus.

A line of polyoma-transformed mouse cells has been isolated which is fully susceptible to lytic infection by polyoma virus. This line has been used to select virus mutants which have lost most or all of their ability to grow in the untransformed parental line while retaining the ability to grow in the transformed derivative. These virus mutants are also defective in their ability to transform c...
