Abstract
A series of viable recombinants between adenovirus 2 (Ad2) and simian virus 40 (SV40) (nondefective Ad2-SV40 hybrids) have been isolated. The members of this series (designated Ad2(+)ND(1) through Ad2(+)ND(5)) differ from one another in the early SV40-specific antigens and the SV40-specific RNA species which they induce in infected cells. They also contain different amounts of SV40 DNA as shown by RNA-DNA hybridization techniques. We have examined the structure of the DNA molecules from these hybrids, using electron microscope heteroduplex mapping techniques. Each hybrid was found to contain a single segment of SV40 DNA of characteristic size covalently inserted at a unique location in the adenovirus 2 DNA molecule. The SV40 segments of the various hybrids formed an overlapping series with a common end point. When the results of the electron microscopic study were combined with data on antigen induction, it was found that a self-consistent map could be constructed which related specific regions of the SV40 genome to the induction of specific antigens. The order of these early SV40 antigen inducing regions in the SV40 DNA segments contained in the nondefective hybrids is: U antigen, tumor specific transplantation antigen, and T antigen with the U antigen region being nearest the common end point.

Abstract
The simian virus 40 (SV40) DNA segment in the nondefective adenovirus 2-SV40 hybrid, Ad2(+)ND(4), is colinear with the segment between 0.11 and 0.59 SV40 fractional length from the site at which the R(1) restriction endonuclease cleaves SV40 DNA. This specifies the region of the SV40 DNA molecule which induces the early SV40 antigens: U antigen, tumor specific transplantation antigen, and T antigen. A variant of Ad2(+)ND(4), called Ad2(+)ND(4del), was found which has a deletion of the DNA segment between 0.50 and 0.57 SV40 fractional length from the R(1) endonuclease cleavage point.

Abstract
Certain biophysical characteristics of the DNA from each of the five nondefective adenovirus 2 (Ad2)-simian virus 40 (SV40) hybrid viruses (Ad2(+)ND(1), Ad2(+)ND(2), Ad2(+)ND(3), Ad2(+)ND(4), Ad2(+)ND(5)) have been determined. The guanine plus cytosine content varied from 55 to 57% and was not significantly different from that of nonhybrid Ad2 (56%), and the hybrid DNA molecules had mean molecular lengths which were similar to that of the standard, Ad2. The Ad2 and SV40 components of each hybrid were linked by alkali-resistant, presumably covalent bonds. The percentage of SV40 DNA in each hybrid virus was determined by hybridization with SV40 complementary RNA in a calibrated system. The results indicate that each hybrid virus DNA contains a different percentage of SV40 nucleotide sequences. The estimated size of the SV40 DNA component varies from 48,000 daltons for Ad2(+)ND(3) to 840,000 daltons for Ad2(+)ND(4), the latter being equivalent to between one-fourth and one-third of the SV40 genome.

Abstract
Four new nondefective adenovirus 2 (Ad2)-simian virus 40 (SV40) hybrid viruses have been isolated. Although these viruses (designated Ad2(+)ND(2), Ad2(+)ND(3), Ad2(+)ND(4), and Ad2(+)ND(5)) were clonal derivatives of the same Ad2-SV40 hybrid population, they differ significantly from each other and from the previously isolated nondefective hybrid, Ad2(+)ND(1), in their biological properties or in the amount of SV40-specific RNA induced during lytic infection.Like Ad2(+)ND(1), Ad2(+)ND(2), and Ad2(+)ND(4) pass serially in both human embryonic kidney (HEK) and primary African green monkey kidney cells. In contrast, Ad2(+)ND(3) and Ad2(+)ND(5) pass serially only in HEK cells. Ad2(+)ND(2) is like Ad2(+)ND(1) in that it induces the SV40 U antigen, but not SV40 T antigen; however, in contrast to the perinuclear SV40 antigen induced by Ad2(+)ND(1), the SV40 antigen induced by Ad2(+)ND(2) is located peripherally in the cytoplasm as well as in the perinuclear region of infected cells. Ad2(+)ND(4) induces both the SV40 T and U antigens. Ad2(+)ND(3) and Ad2(+)ND(5) do not induce serologically detectable SV40 antigens and are distinguished from each other on the basis of the relative quantities of SV40-specific RNA which they induce. The induction of different SV40-specific functions suggests the incorporation of different segments of SV40 DNA within the genomes of the respective hybrid viruses.

Abstract
Five nondefective adenovirus 2 (Ad2)-simian virus 40 (SV40) hybrid viruses have been isolated and found to contain segments of SV40 DNA covalently linked to Ad2 DNA. The quantity of SV40 DNA present is a stable characteristic of each hybrid virus, and varies from less than 5% (in Ad2(+)ND(3)) to more than 30% (in Ad2(+)ND(4)) of the SV40 genome. We have characterized the SV40 portions of these hybrids by relating the SV40-specific RNA sequences transcribed in cells infected with each hybrid virus to those transcribed in cells infected with each of the other hybrid viruses and with SV40 itself. RNA-DNA hybridization-competition experiments indicate that the number of unique SV40 RNA sequences transcribed in infected cells is proportional to the size of the SV40 DNA segment contained within each hybrid and, in the case of the three hybrids which induce detectable SV40-specific antigens, to the number of SV40 antigens induced. Furthermore, the SV40-specific RNA sequences transcribed from any one of the hybrids are completely represented in the RNA transcribed from all other hybrids with longer SV40 segments. Thus, the SV40 DNA regions in the five hybrid viruses appear to contain some nucleotide sequences in common. The SV40-specific RNA transcribed from Ad2(+)ND(4), the hybrid containing the largest SV40 segment, is qualitatively similar to the SV40-specific RNA transcribed early (i.e., prior to viral DNA replication) in SV40 lytic infection. Thus, it appears that no significant amount of late SV40 DNA is transcribed during infection by any of the five nondefective Ad2-SV40 hybrid viruses.

Abstract
The DNA of simian virus 40 (SV40) was transcribed into RNA by Escherichia coli RNA polymerase at 18 to 24 C after synchronization of the initiation of RNA synthesis. After a brief synthetic period the RNA product contained relatively large amounts of sequences derived from a limited segment of SV40 DNA. The source for this pulse-labeled RNA was found to be a portion of the segment of SV40 DNA included within the nondefective adenovirus (Ad)-SV40 hybrid viruses, Ad2(+)ND(1) and Ad2(+)ND(3). After synthesis with [gamma-(32)P] ATP, Ad2(+)ND(1) and Ad2(+)ND(3) DNA transcripts contained an initial sequence missing from Ad2 transcripts. This sequence was identified as an initiation sequence for polymerase transcription of the SV40 DNA. Thus, there is a preferred site for initiation of in vitro transcription on the segment of SV40 DNA common to the nondefective Ad2(+)ND(1) and Ad2(+)ND(3) hybrid viruses.

Abstract
The complementary DNA strands of the nondefective adenovirus 2 (Ad2)-simian virus 40 (SV40) hybrid virus, Ad2(+)ND(1), were separated by isopycnic banding in a CsCl density gradient in the presence of synthetic polyribonucleotides. Separated strands were used in DNA-RNA hybridization reactions with RNA from cells productively infected by Ad2 or SV40, and with complementary SV40 RNA transcribed asymmetrically in vitro. About five times as much Ad2 RNA hybridized to the light stand of Ad2(+)ND(1) as to the heavy strand. Complementary RNA and early SV40 RNA (RNA synthesized before viral DNA replication) had significant homology only with the light strand. Only half as much of a preparation of RNA synthesized before and after viral DNA replication (early-plus-late SV40 RNA) hybridized to the light strand as to the heavy strand. These results indicate that templates for both late and early SV40 RNA are present in Ad2(+)ND(1). Therefore, the small SV40 segment within this virus (10-18% of the SV40 genome) must contain a transcription-control region. Ad2(+)ND(1) should thus be useful in the selective study of transcription as it occurs in cells infected by the oncogenic virus SV40.

Abstract
Ad2(+)ND(1), a nondefective adenovirus 2 (Ad2)-simian virus 40 (SV40) hybrid virus, has been previously shown to contain a small segment of the SV40 genome covalently linked to Ad2 deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). The SV40 portion of this hybrid virus has been characterized by relating the SV40-specific ribonucleic acid (RNA) sequences transcribed from the Ad2(+)ND(1) DNA to those transcribed from the DNA of SV40 itself. RNA-DNA hybridization-competition studies indicate that the SV40 component of Ad2(+)ND(1) consists of some, but not all, of that part of the SV40 genome which is transcribed early, i.e., prior to viral DNA replication, in SV40 lytic infection.

Abstract
The nondefective adenovirus 2 (Ad2)-simian virus 40 (SV40) hybrid virus, Ad2(+)ND(1), differs from the defective Ad-SV40 hybrid populations previously described, in that this hybrid virus can replicate without the aid of nonhybrid adenovirus helper. Consequently, the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) from this virus, which can be obtained free of nonhybrid adenovirus DNA, is well suited for biophysical studies on Ad-SV40 hybrid DNA. Such studies have been performed and demonstrate Ad2(+)ND(1) DNA to have a buoyant density (1.715 g/cm(3)) and thermal denaturation profile (T(m) = 75.1 C) almost identical with nonhybrid Ad2 DNA. Furthermore, its molecular weight, as determined by analytical zone sedimentation and electron microscopy, was 22 x 10(6) to 25 x 10(6) daltons, which is also very similar to that determined for Ad2. Electron micrographs showed all of the hybrid molecules to be double-stranded and linear. By using this determination of the molecular weight of Ad2(+)ND(1) DNA and assuming that 1% of this molecule consists of covalently linked SV40 DNA (see companion paper), we calculate that the hybrid DNA molecule contains 220 x 10(3) to 250 x 10(3) daltons of SV40 DNA, or the equivalent of one-tenth of the SV40 genome.

Abstract
A nondefective adenovirus 2 (Ad2)-simian virus 40 (SV40) hybrid virus, Ad2(+)ND(1), has been plaque-isolated from an Ad2-SV40 hybrid population. This virus, unlike the defective Ad-SV40 hybrid populations previously described, replicates without the aid of nonhybrid adenovirus helper. Consequently, the hybrid virus deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) can be obtained free of nonhybrid adenovirus DNA. The DNA of the Ad2(+)ND(1) virus was shown by ribonucleic acid (RNA)-DNA hybridization to consist of nucleotide sequences complementary to Ad2- and SV40-specific RNA. Techniques of equilibrium density and rate zonal centrifugation were employed to demonstrate that these Ad2 and SV40 nucleotide sequences were linked together in the same DNA molecules by alkali-resistant bonds. Calibration curves were established relating the amount of tritium-labeled SV40-specific RNA (prepared in vitro or in vivo) bound to given amounts of SV40 DNA in a hybridization reaction, and these curves were employed to determine the equivalent amount of SV40 DNA in the Ad2(+)ND(1) molecule. From the results obtained, it was estimated that 1% of the Ad2(+)ND(1) DNA consists of SV40 nucleotide sequences.

Abstract
The nondefective adenovirus 2 (Ad2)-simian virus 40 (SV40) hybrid virus, Ad2(+)ND(1), does not induce heat-labile SV40 T antigen but does induce a previously uncharacterized heat-stable SV40 antigen-the SV40 "U" antigen. This antigen is detectable by both immunofluorescence and complement fixation by using sera from hamsters with SV40 tumors. Sera from hamsters bearing SV40 tumors can be divided into two groups, those that react with both SV40 T and U antigens (T(+)U(+) sera) and those that react with SV40 T antigen only (T(+)U(-) sera). SV40 U-specific sera from monkeys immunized with Ad2(+)ND(1)-infected cells do not react with SV40 T antigen by immunofluorescence but do react with an antigen in the nucleus of SV40-transformed cells and with an early, cytosine arabinoside-resistant antigen present in the nucleus of SV40-infected cells. A heat-stable SV40 antigen detectable by complement fixation with T(+)U(+) hamster sera is present in extracts of SV40-induced hamster tumors and in cell packs of SV40-infected or -transformed cells. SV40 U-antigen synthesis by Ad2(+)ND(1) virus is partially sensitive to inhibitors of deoxyribonucleic acid synthesis, whereas U-antigen synthesis by SV40 virus is an early cytosine arabinoside-resistant event. As an early SV40 antigen differing from SV40 T antigen, U antigen may play a role in malignant transformation mediated by SV40.

Abstract
The deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) from the adenovirus-encapsidated particles of the adenovirus type 2 (Ad2)-simian virus 40 (SV40) hybrid population plaque variant (Ad2(++) HEY), known to yield SV40 virus with high efficiency, was studied by equilibrium density centrifugation followed by ribonucleic acid-DNA hybridization employing virus-specific complementary ribonucleic acids synthesized in vitro. These techniques establish linkage between the Ad2 and SV40 components in the adenovirus-encapsidated particles of this population. The linkage is alkali-resistant and presumably covalent; thus, the Ad2 DNA and SV40 DNA are present in a hybrid molecule. Velocity centrifugation studies in alkaline sucrose gradients eliminated the possibility that supercoiled circular SV40 DNA is present in the adenovirus capsids. The DNA obtained from the adenovirus-encapsidated particles of the Ad2(++) HEY population appears to consist of nonhybrid Ad2 DNA and Ad2-SV40 hybrid DNA molecules.

Abstract
Studies on the adenovirus type 2-simian virus 40 (SV40) hybrid population demonstrated two genetically stable variants within this population, which were isolated by plaquing in African green monkey kidney cells. These variants were similar in that each induced SV40 T antigen in human embryonic kidney cells and contained similar concentrations of nonhybrid adenovirus type 2 virions and adenovirus-encapsidated particles containing the infectious SV40 genome. These variants differed markedly, however, in their ability to produce SV40 viral antigen in human embryonic kidney cells and the efficiency with which they produce SV40 plaques in monkey cell monolayers. It is postulated that the differences in SV40-yielding efficiency between these variants lie in the nature of the recombinant deoxyribonucleic acid composing the genome of the hybrid particles.

Abstract
The simian virus 40 (SV40)-yielding variants of the adenovirus type 2 (Ad.2)-SV40 hybrid (Ad.2(++)) population were studied by means of fixed-angle equilibrium density gradient centrifugation in cesium chloride. The hybrid virions of the Ad.2(++) high-efficiency yielder population banded at densities of 0.004 g/cm(3) lighter than the nonhybrid Ad.2 virions. The degree of separation of the hybrid particles was sufficient to permit greater than 100-fold relative purification by two cycles of centrifugation. Hybrid particles that produce adenovirus plaques in African green monkey kidney cells by two-hit kinetics (one-hit kinetics when assayed on lawns of nonhybrid adenovirus) were not separable from the particles that yield SV40 virus. The hybrid particle in the Ad.2(++) low-efficiency yielder population was not separable from the nonhybrid Ad.2 virions.

Abstract
A new nondefective hybrid virus has been plaque-isolated from the Ad.2-SV40 hybrid population. This virus replicates efficiently with one-hit kinetics in both human embryonic kidney and African green monkey kidney cells, induces an SV40 specific antigen which is detectable by immunofluorescence and complement-fixation using sera from SV40 tumor-bearing hamsters, and produces SV40-specific RNA detectable by DNA-RNA hybridization. The SV40-specific antigen induced by this virus is heat-stable, sensitive to inhibitors of DNA synthesis, serologically different from SV40 T and viral antigens, and is an unrecognized SV40 antigen.
