Abstract
The human adenovirus single-stranded (ss) DNA-binding protein (DBP) possesses a highly conserved carboxyl domain which contains a putative zinc-binding motif between amino acids (aa) 273 and 286. Using a zinc blotting technique DBP was shown to bind 65Zn at levels similar to other documented zinc metalloproteins. In competition experiments, DBP bound specifically to the zinc ion even in the presence of other divalent ions such as Ca+2, Mg+2, Cd+2, Co+2, and Mn+2. The zinc-binding ability of DBP was also confirmed by zinc affinity chromatography. Site-directed mutagenesis was utilized to construct a mutant which deleted the entire zinc region (pKZNdl 273-286) and a mutant which contained a Cys to Ser substitution at aa residue 284 (pKZNpt 284). The deletion mutant was unable to bind zinc, and the point mutant showed limited binding suggesting that aa 273-286 are responsible for the interaction of DBP with zinc. The DBP zinc mutants were also examined for their ability to bind to ssDNA. The deletion mutant was unable to bind ssDNA cellulose while the point mutant exhibited decreased affinity. Thus, the region between aa 273 and 286 which mediates zinc binding also appears fundamental for the ssDNA-binding function of DBP.

Abstract
The adenovirus-encoded single-stranded DNA-binding protein (DBP) functions in viral DNA replication and several aspects of RNA metabolism. Previous studies (G. A. M. Neale and G. R. Kitchingman, J. Biol. Chem. 264:3153-3159, 1989) have defined three highly conserved regions in the carboxy-terminal domain of the protein (amino acids 178 to 186, 322 to 330, and 464 to 475) that may be involved in the binding of the protein to single-stranded DNA. We examined the role of conserved region 3 (464 to 475) by constructing nine classes of point mutants with from one to four amino acid changes. The point mutants were tested for their ability to assist adeno-associated virus DNA replication. All nine differed from wild-type DBP; seven were essentially nonfunctional, whereas two had 55 and 145%, respectively, of the wild-type DBP helper activity. Three of the mutants were found to be temperature sensitive, with significantly greater helper activity at 33 degrees C than at 37 degrees C. All nine mutants produced essentially wild-type levels of protein. One monoclonal antibody against the DBP, termed 2/4, did not immunoprecipitate the mutant DBPs as well as wild-type DBP, indicating either that the antibody recognized sequences around CR3 or that the conformation of the protein around the epitope recognized by 2/4 had changed. Two of the three temperature-sensitive DBP mutants bound to single-stranded DNA-cellulose with the same affinity as wild-type DBP at 4 degrees C; the remaining mutants all showed reduced affinity. These results demonstrated that many of the residues within conserved region 3 of the DBP are important for interaction of the protein with nucleic acid.

Abstract
The isolation and characterization of an adenovirus mutant, Ad5dl802r1, containing two independent deletions in the 72-kilodalton (kDa) DNA-binding protein (DBP) gene is described. The two deletions remove amino acids 23 through 105 of DBP, resulting in the production of a 50-kDa product. Expression of this truncated DBP was delayed 12 to 24 h compared with that of the 72-kDa protein produced by wild-type adenovirus type 5. The DBP was located primarily in the cytoplasm of infected cells, whereas the wild-type product was predominantly nuclear. Therefore, DBP appears to contain a nuclear localization signal within the deleted region. Ad5dl802r1 DNA synthesis, viral late gene expression, and virus production were all delayed 12 to 24 h and were approximately 10-fold lower than with wild-type adenovirus type 5. These phenotypic properties can be accounted for by the delay in synthesis and the inefficient accumulation of the 50-kDa DBP within the nucleus of infected cells. The truncated DBP also lacks the majority of amino acids which are phosphorylated in the normal protein. The loss of these phosphorylation sites does not appear to seriously impair the ability of the protein to carry out its functions.

Abstract
We have synthesized wild type DNA binding protein (DBP) of adenovirus type 5 (Ad5) and several truncated forms of this protein by a combination of in vitro transcription and translation. The proteins obtained were tested for binding to a single-stranded DNA-cellulose column. It could be shown that for binding of in vitro synthesized wild type DBP, it is necessary to add zinc ions to the in vitro translation system. Binding studies with the truncated proteins revealed that deletion of the carboxyl-terminal 46 amino acids abolishes DNA binding.

Abstract
Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells infected with adenovirus type 2 (Ad2) produced amounts of viral deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) equal to that synthesized in permissively infected HeLa cells. However, there was 6,000-fold less virion produced in CHO cells. Since the structural viral polypeptides were not detected by pulse-labeling CHO cells at various times postinfection, the block in virion formation is located between the synthesis of viral DNA and late proteins. Extracts of CHO cells could also function in a recently reported in vitro Ad2 DNA synthesis system which is dependent upon the addition of exogenous Ad2 DNA covalently linked to a 5'-terminal protein (Ikeda et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 77:5827-5831, 1980). Extracts of infected CHO cytoplasm were able to complement uninfected CHO nuclear extracts to synthesize viral DNA on Ad2 templates. This in vitro replication system has the potential to probe host DNA synthesis requirements as well as viral factors.

Abstract
The 34-kDa fragment of the carboxyl end of the adenovirus (Ad) DNA binding protein (DBP) binds to single-stranded (ss) DNA and is able to replace the intact 72-kDa DBP needed for Ad DNA replication in vitro. A similar fragment prepared from the temperature-sensitive (ts) mutant, H5ts107, which has a single amino acid change in the carboxyl end of the DBP, is temperature sensitive for DNA replication and defective in binding to ssDNA. However, in 20 mM NaCl which is the salt concentration during Ad DNA replication in vitro, the intact 72-kDa H5ts107 DBP is defective only in replication but not binding to DNA at nonpermissive temperatures. These observations indicate that the amino domain of the H5ts107 DBP can stabilize the binding of its carboxyl end to DNA.

Abstract
Nuclear factor I (NFI) binds tightly to DNA containing the consensus sequence TGG(N)6-7GCCAA. To study the role of the spacing between the TGG and GCCAA motifs, oligonucleotides homologous to the NFI binding site FIB-2 were synthesized and used for binding assays in vitro. The wild-type site (FIB-2.6) has a 6bp spacer region and binds tightly to NFI. When the size of this spacer was altered by +/- 1 or 2bp the binding to NFI was abolished. To further assess the role of the spacer and bases flanking the motifs, two oligonucleotide libraries were synthesized. Each member of these libraries had intact TGG and GCCAA motifs, but the sequence of the spacer and the 3bp next to each motif was degenerate. The library with a 6bp spacer bound to NFI to 40-50% the level of FIB-2.6. The library with a 7bp spacer bound to NFI to only 4% the level of FIB-2.6 and some of this binding was weaker than that of FIB-2.6 DNA. This novel use of degenerate DNA libraries has shown that: 1) the structural requirements for FIB sites with a 7bp spacer are more stringent than for sites with a 6bp spacer and 2) a limited number of DNA structural features can prevent the binding of NFI to sites with intact motifs and a 6bp spacer region.

Abstract
The nucleotide sequence of the gene for the single-stranded DNA-binding protein of adenovirus type 4 (Ad4) has been determined. The gene codes for a protein of 512 amino acids. Comparison of the amino acid sequence with those previously determined for Ad5, Ad12, and Ad7 allowed identification of regions that are conserved between the four serotypes. These include stretches of 9, 9, and 12 amino acids in the carboxy-terminal domain of the protein; these sequences are similar to those identified in the single-stranded DNA-binding proteins of procaryotes as being important for interaction of the protein with single-stranded DNA. A conserved region of four amino acids in the amino-terminal domain is identical in sequence to a region of the SV40 large T antigen that has recently been implicated in the nuclear localization of the protein. Other conserved amino acids that may be important for the three-dimensional structure of the protein have also been identified. The overall homology between the DBPs of the four serotypes is 17.2% in the amino-terminal domain, 47.8% in the carboxy-terminal domain. Two-way comparisons between the DBPs of the four serotypes indicates that the DBP of Ad4 is most closely related to that of Ad7.

Abstract
The adenovirus type 2 (Ad2) host range mutant Ad2hr400 grows efficiently in cultured monkey cells at 37 degrees C, but is cold sensitive for plaque formation and late gene expression at 32.5 degrees C. After nitrous acid mutagenesis of an Ad2hr400 stock, cold-resistant variants were selected in CV1 monkey cells at 32.5 degrees C. One such variant, Ad2ts400, was also temperature sensitive (ts) for growth in both CV1 and HeLa cells. Marker rescue analysis has been used to show that the two phenotypes, cold resistant and temperature sensitive, are due to two independent mutations, each of which resides in a different segment of the gene encoding the 72-kilodalton DNA binding protein (DBP). The cold-resistant mutation (map coordinates 63.6 to 66) is a host range alteration that enhances the ability of the virus to express late genes and grow productively in monkey cells at 32.5 degrees C. The temperature-sensitive mutation is in the same complementation group and maps to the same segment of the DBP gene (map coordinates 61.3 to 63.6) as the well-characterized DBP mutant Ad5ts125. Like Ad5ts125, Ad2ts400 is unable to replicate viral DNA or to properly shut off early mRNA expression at the nonpermissive temperature. Two sets of experiments with Ad2ts400 suggest that DBP contains separate functional domains. First, when CV1 cells are coinfected at the nonpermissive temperature with Ad2 plus Ad2ts400 (Ad2 allows DNA replication and entry into, but not completion of, the late phase of infection), normal late gene expression and productive growth occur. Second, temperature shift experiments show that, although DNA replication is severely restricted at the nonpermissive temperature in ts400-infected monkey cells, late gene expression occurs normally. These results indicate that the DBP activity required for normal late gene expression in monkey cells is functional even when the DBP's DNA replication activity is disrupted.

Abstract
We have introduced the DNA binding protein (DBP) gene of human adenovirus type 5 (Ad5) into high molecular weight DNA of permissive human cells by cotransformation of tk- cells with the cloned DBP and HSV-1 thymidine kinase genes. 110 tk+ cell lines were isolated after selection in HAT medium. The amount and arrangement of adenovirus sequences in the tk+ cell lines were analyzed by restriction endonuclease digestion and filter hybridization. Twelve of the 110 lines carry at least a segment of the DBP gene while only three of these contain the entire DBP gene at approximately one copy per cell. Cytoplasmic, polyadenylated DBP mRNA is made in all three cell lines though the amount is very low compared to that present in infected HeLa cells. The cell line U13-2 which contains approximately 1/30 the steady-state level of DBP mRNA found in infected HeLa cells produces a few percent of the amount of DBP made during the peak period of DBP synthesis in infected cells. The other two lines contain lower levels of DBP mRNA and do not synthesize detectable levels of the protein. When these DBP-tk+ cell lines are infected with adenovirus mutants containing temperature-sensitive (ts) mutations in the DBP gene, only U13-2 permits some viral DNA replication (and hence late gene expression) at the nonpermissive temperature, indicating that sufficient quantities of DBP from the integrated gene are produced to allow complementation of the ts mutation in this cell line. However, growth of these ts mutants (as measured by virus production) is only partially complemented in U13-2 at the nonpermissive temperature.

Abstract
Initiation of adenovirus DNA replication is dependent on a complex of the precursor of the terminal protein and the adenovirus-coded DNA polymerase (pTP-pol complex). This complex catalyzes the formation of a covalent linkage between dCMP and pTP in the presence of a functional origin of DNA replication residing in the terminal nucleotide sequence of adenovirus DNA. We have purified the pTP-pol complex of adenovirus type 5 and studied its binding to double-stranded DNA. Using DNA-cellulose chromatography it could be shown that the pTP-pol complex has a higher affinity for adenovirus DNA than for calf thymus or pBR322 DNA. From the differential binding of the pTP-pol complex to plasmids containing adenovirus terminal sequences with different deletions, it has been concluded that a sequence of 14 nucleotide pairs at positions 9-22 plays a crucial role in the binding of pTP-pol to adenovirus DNA. This region is conserved in the DNA's of all human adenovirus serotypes and is obviously an important structural element of the adenovirus origin of DNA replication. Comparative binding studies with adenovirus DNA polymerase and pTP-pol indicated that pTP is responsible for the binding. The nature of the binding of pTP-pol to the conserved sequence will be discussed.

Abstract
The function of the adenovirus-coded terminal protein and its precursor in viral DNA replication was studied by raising an antiserum against the adenovirus type 5 (Ad5) terminal protein isolated from virions. This antiserum reacted with both the terminal protein and its precursor as measured by a radioimmunoassay. In an in vitro DNA replication system employing nuclear extracts the addition of antiserum inhibits replication when a DNA-terminal protein complex from adenovirions is used as template. The replication of a 3.8% terminal fragment of the Ad2 genome with a protein-free origin (derived from the plasmid XD-7) is also inhibited by the antiserum. This observation confirms a role of the terminal protein precursor in DNA replication. The antiserum completely inhibited the formation of a covalent complex between the precursor terminal protein and dCMP, which is essential for initiation. A function of the terminal protein in the elongation reaction was shown by the inhibitory effect of antiserum on DNA chain elongation in isolated nuclei from Ad5-infected cells. Also in the in vitro DNA replication system employing nuclear extracts the elongation reaction is strongly reduced by addition of the antiserum. These results indicate that the terminal protein and/or its precursor are not only involved in initiation of DNA replication but also in DNA chain elongation.

Abstract
The adenoviral DNA binding protein (DBP) is a multifunctional protein involved in DNA replication and gene expression. In order to investigate the relation between structure and function of DBP, the amino acid sequences of the serotypes 5 and 12 (Ad5 and Ad12) have been compared. The amino acid sequence of Ad5 DBP was previously established by nucleotide sequence analysis of the Ad5 DBP gene (W. Kruijer, F. M. A. Van Schaik, and J. S. Sussenbach, Nucl. Acids Res. 9, 4439-4457, 1981). In this study the analysis of the Ad5 DBP gene and adjacent regions by determination of the sequence of the first leader in late DBP mRNA's and the splice point between the tripartite leader and the main body of the mRNA encoding the 100-kDa protein has been extended. The nucleotide sequence of the Ad12 DBP gene is also described. From the nucleotide sequence and RNA mapping data of Ad12 DBP mRNA's (I. Saito, J. Sato H. Handa, K. Shiraki, and H. Shimojo, Virology 114, 379-398, 1981) the complete Ad12 DBP amino acid sequence could be deduced. Ad12 DBP contains 484 amino acids and has an actual Mr of 54,992. It is 45 amino acids shorter than Ad5 DBP. Comparison of the Ad12 and Ad5 DBP amino acid sequences shows that several longer deletions are present in the N-terminal 125 amino acid residues of Ad12 DBP. In contrast, only a single amino acid deletion and insertion is found in the C-terminal 359 amino acids of Ad12 DBP. The N- and C-terminal domains of Ad12 and Ad5 DBP are 45 and 80% homologous, respectively. This suggests that both domains of DBP are subjected to different evolutionary pressures. Analysis of various Ad5 mutants with an altered DBP gene, has indicated that the C-terminal domain is involved in DNA replication and early gene expression, while the N-terminal domain has a role in late gene expression in monkey cells. These results are discussed in relation to the structure and function of adenovirus DBP.

Adenovirus DNA replication was studied in vitro in nuclear extracts prepared from HeLa cells infected at the permissive temperature with H5ts125, H5ts36, or H5ts149, three DNA-negative mutants belonging to two different complementation groups. At the restrictive temperature, H5ts125 extracts, containing a thermolabile 72-kilodalton DNA-binding protein, enable the formation of an initiation complex between the 82-kilodalton terminal protein precursor (pTP) and dCTP, but further elongation of this complex is inhibited. Wild-type DNA-binding protein or a 47-kilodalton chymotryptic DNA-binding fragment can complement the mutant protein in the elongation reaction. No difference in heat inactivation was observed between wild-type extracts and H5ts36 or H5ts149 extracts when the replication of terminal XbaI fragments of adenovirus type 5 DNA-terminal protein complex was studied. In contrast, the formation of a pTP-dCMP initiation complex, as well as the partial elongation reaction up to nucleotide 26, were consistently more temperature sensitive in mutant extracts. The results suggest that the H5ts36/H5ts149 gene product is required for initiation of adenovirus type 5 DNA replication and that the 72-kilodalton DNA-binding protein functions early in elongation.

Abstract
H5ts107 and H5ts125 are two adenoviruses type 5 (Ad5) mutants with a temperature-sensitive DNA replication. Both mutants contain an altered gene encoding the DNA binding protein (DBP). We have established by nucleotide sequence analysis that both mutants carry exactly the same mutation in the DBP gene resulting in the substitution of a proline residue at position 413 in the wild-type DBP amino acid sequence (529 amino acid residues long) by a serine residue. Revertants of H5ts107 and H5ts125, which are temperature independent in plaque efficiency and growth in HeLa cells at 32 degrees and 39 degrees, were characterized by nucleotide sequence analysis of their DBP genes. Four types of revertants could be distinguished: revertants with the wild-type DBP amino acid sequence (type I) and, revertants carrying, in addition to the original H5ts107/H5ts125 mutation at position 413, intragenic second site mutations at position 508 histidine leads to tyrosine (type II), at position 352 glycine leads to aspartic acid (type III), and at position 347 alanine leads to proline (type IV), respectively. All intragenic second site mutations are located, together with the H5ts107/H5ts125 mutation, in the C-terminal 45-kD fragment of the adenovirus DBP molecule. This provides further evidence that this part of the DBP molecule plays an important role in viral DNA replication. Phenotypic characterization of the revertants (J.C. Nicolas, F. Suarez, A.J. Levine, and M. Girard (1981), Virology 108, 521-524; (J.C. Nicolas, D. Ingrand, P. Sarnow, and A.J. Levine (1982), Virology 122, 481-485) has shown that the second site mutations reveal additional functional domains in the DBP molecule.

Abstract
Eight mutants of pseudorabies virus belonging to complementation group 3 and situated between 0.14 and 0.18 units on the physical map of the genome were analyzed. All the mutants tested in this respect (seven) recombined with one another, indicating that the mutations were located in different regions of the gene. All mutants were DNA-; the first round, as well as subsequent rounds, of DNA replication was completely blocked at the nonpermissive temperature in the mutant-infected cells. After shift-up from the permissive to the nonpermissive temperature, viral DNA synthesis continued for a short period of time only and viral DNA which had accumulated at the permissive temperature became degraded. Parental viral DNA, however, retained its integrity at the nonpermissive temperature and viral DNA synthesis started immediately after shift-down of the mutant-infected cells from the nonpermissive to the permissive temperature (even in the absence of protein synthesis). All mutants belonging to complementation group 3 tested (5 out of 8) produced a thermolabile nonstructural DNA binding protein (136K). In some of the mutant virus-infected cells this protein failed to migrate to the nucleus. We conclude that the pseudorabies virus mutants in complementation group 3 code for a defective 136K protein and that this protein is not only essential to the process of viral DNA synthesis but also plays a role in the stabilization of progeny DNA (but not of nonreplicating parental DNA) within the infected cells.

Abstract
The adenovirus-specific DNA-binding protein (DBP) has been shown to inhibit the hydrolysis of single-stranded DNA by a DNase isolated from KB cells, (Nass, K., and Frenkel, G.D. (1980). J. Virol. 35, 314-319). The specificity of the inhibition has now been investigated. The DBP inhibits the hydrolysis of single-stranded DNA by several different DNases (DNase II, KB DNase, S1 nuclease) under a variety of reaction conditions, but it has no effect on DNase I-catalyzed hydrolysis of single-stranded DNA. The DBP also inhibits the rate of hydrolysis of double-stranded DNA by KB DNase and DNase II, but has no effect on DNase I-catalyzed hydrolysis of this substrate. The DBP also inhibits the dephosphorylation of 5'-phosphoryl-terminated DNA by bacterial alkaline phosphatase but stimulates the phosphorylation of 5'-hydroxyl-terminated DNA by polynucleotide kinase.

Abstract
Proteins encoded by adenovirus type 2 and type 5 early region 2A isolated from infected HeLa cells were compared to translation products of E2A-specific messenger RNA in a reticulocyte cell-free system and in Xenopus oocytes. The main cell-free translation product is a 72,000 Mr polypeptide which in HeLa cells as well as in Xenopus oocytes is converted into a 75,000 Mr phosphoprotein capable of binding to single-stranded DNA. Some minor proteins are proteolytic cleavage products of the major protein. In the cell-free system, three E2A polypeptides, 32,000, 37,000 and 44,000 Mr, are translated from minor polyadenylated mRNA species that can be separated from the major mRNA. Synthesis of all E2A polypeptides in vitro is inhibited by cap-analogs. The 44,000 Mr protein is also synthesized in Xenopus oocytes. Tryptic peptide maps of [35S]methionine-labeled E2A proteins were constructed using high pressure liquid chromatography and the position of the methionyl residues within each peptide was determined by amino acid sequencing procedures. This information and the DNA sequence of the adenovirus 5 E2A gene published by Kruijer et al. (1981) were used to align the peptides and to construct a map of the E2A proteins. Our data demonstrate that the major 75,000 Mr protein is coded for by a leftward reading frame of 529 amino acid residues located between 62 and 66 map units. The data also map six sites as targets for proteolytic enzymes. The minor E2A translation products have the same carboxy terminus as the major protein. The initiation codons of the 44,000, 37,000 and 32,000 Mr polypeptides probably correspond to amino acids 170, 243 or 244 and 290 of the major protein. Some functional properties of the major E2A protein are shared by the minor proteins and thus could be mapped. Major sites of phosphorylation, the region involved in binding to single-stranded DNA and the antigenic regions recognized by immune sera are located between amino acid residues 50 to 120, 170 to 470 and 170 to 240, respectively.

Abstract
A protein factor that participates in the formation of a covalent complex between the 80,000-dalton precursor of the adenovirus (Ad) terminal protein (pTP) and 5'-dCMP has been isolated and characterized. This 47,000-dalton protein, isolated from nuclear extracts of uninfected HeLa cells, has been designated nuclear factor I. It is free of detectable DNA polymerase alpha, beta, and gamma activities. In the presence of Ad DNA-prot, the Ad-protein fraction (containing the pTP and the Ad-associated DNA polymerase), ATP, Mg2+, and dCTP, nuclear factor I stimulates formation of the pTP-dCMP complex. Addition of the Ad DNA binding protein (Ad DBP) renders the formation of the pTP-dCMP complex completely dependent on the addition of nuclear factor I. When Ad DNA-prot is replaced with phi X174 single-stranded circular DNA, pTP-dCMP complex formation requires only the Ad-protein fraction; Ad DBP and ATP are inhibitory and nuclear factor I has no effect on this reaction. This suggests that the initiation reaction observed with Ad DNA-prot in the absence of Ad DBP occurs at single-stranded DNA sites. In the presence of Ad DBP, these sites are blocked thus creating a requirement for nuclear factor I in pTP-dCMP complex formation.

Abstract
The requirement for the adenovirus (Ad) single-stranded DNA binding protein (DBP) in the expression of adeno-associated virus (AAV) proteins was studied by specific immunofluorescent staining of infected cells and in vitro translation of RNA from infected cells. The Ad5 mutant ts125, which carries a mutation in the DBP gene, helped AAV as efficiently as the Ad5 wild type (WT) did at both the permissive (32 degrees C) and nonpermissive (40.5 degrees C) temperatures in HeLa and KB cells. Furthermore, at 40.5 degrees C ts125 was as efficient as Ad5WT was in inducing the expression of AAV proteins in a line of Detroit 6 cells which is latently infected with AAV. However, little if any AAV protein was synthesized when coinfections were carried out with Ad5WT in CV-C cells, a monkey cell line that is highly restrictive for human Ad replication unless the cells are also infected with simian virus 40. On the other hand, AAV protein was efficiently produced in CV-C cells in coinfections with the Ad5 mutant hr404, whose growth is unrestricted in CV-C cells and whose mutation also maps in the DBP gene. Finally, preparations of cytoplasmic RNA extracted from CV-C cells infected with AAV and Ad5WT or from CV-C cells infected with AAV, Ad5WT, and simian virus 40 were each capable of directing the in vitro synthesis of abundant amounts of AAV proteins in a rabbit reticulocyte lysate system. These results indicate that the abnormal DBP of ts125 still retains its helper function for AAV replication, but that the molecular feature of the DBP which relates to the monkey cell host range restriction of Ad's may also account for the observed block to AAV protein translation in CV-C cells.

Abstract
Aphidicolin is a highly specific inhibitor of DNA polymerase alpha and has been most useful for assessing the role of this enzyme in various replication processes (J. A. Huberman, Cell 23:647-648, 1981). Both nuclear DNA replication and simian virus 40 DNA replication are highly sensitive to this drug (Krokan et al., Biochemistry 18:4431-4443, 1979), whereas mitochondrial DNA synthesis is completely insensitive (Zimmerman et al., J. Biol. Chem. 255:11847-11852, 1980). Adenovirus DNA replication is sensitive to aphidicolin, but only at much higher concentrations. These patterns of sensitivity are seen both in vivo and in vitro (Krokan et al., Biochemistry 18:4431-4443, 1979). A temperature-sensitive mutant of adenovirus type 5 known as H5ts125 is able to complete but not initiate new rounds of replication at nonpermissive temperatures (P. C. van der Vliet and J. S. Sussenbach, Virology 67:415-426, 1975). When cells infected with H5ts125 were shifted from permissive (33 degrees C) to nonpermissive (41 degrees C) conditions, the residual DNA synthesis (elongation) showed a striking increase in sensitivity to aphidicolin. The temperature-sensitive mutation of H5ts125 is in the gene for the 72-kilodalton single-stranded DNA-binding protein. This demonstrated that the increased resistance to aphidicolin shown by adenovirus DNA replication was dependent on that protein. It also supports an elongation role for both DNA polymerase alpha and the 72-kilodalton single-stranded DNA-binding protein in adenovirus DNA replication. Further support for an elongation role of DNA polymerase alpha came from experiments with permissive temperature conditions and inhibiting levels of aphidicolin in which it was shown that newly initiated strands failed to elongate to completion.

Abstract
The major product of in vitro translation of early RNA prepared from H5ts125-infected cells and selected by hybridization to adenoviral DNA fragments spanning the region from 14.7 to 31.5 map units had been shown to be identical to the 87-kilodalton terminal protein precursor. A 72- to 75-kilodalton polypeptide whose rRNA can be selected by DNA from this same region and made in the presence of anisomycin was indistinguishable from the 72-kilodalton single-stranded DNA-binding protein encoded by the region from 60.1 to 66.6 map units. The accumulation of cytoplasmic RNA sequences complementary to these l-strand genes under various conditions of infection and in certain lines of transformed cells has been investigated by solution hybridization of cytoplasmic RNA to the separated strands of restriction endonuclease fragments of adenoviral DNA. During the early phase, RNA sequences complementary to the region from 11.6 to 36.7 map units were present at a concentration of 10 to 60 copies per cell, regardless of the nature of the block used to inhibit viral DNA synthesis. By 24 h after infection in the absence of any such block, sequences complementary to the regions from 11.6 to 18.2 map units (IVa2) and from 18.6 to 36.7 map units (E2B) accumulated to concentrations of 4,800 and 280 copies per cell, respectively. The ratio of cytoplasmic E2A RNA sequences to E2B RNA sequences remained close to 10:1 throughout the time period investigated. Of the transformed cell lines which retained E2B DNA sequences that were examined, only the T2C4 line expressed these sequences in cytoplasmic RNA. The implications of these observations for regulation of expression of the adenoviral early l-strand genes are discussed.

Abstract
We have previously shown that the 5'-terminal deoxycytidine residue of each nascent adenovirus 5 DNA strand synthesized in vitro is covalently linked to the 80-kilodalton (kd) terminal protein precursor via a phosphodiester bond to a serine residue in the protein. When extracts prepared from adenovirus 5-infected cells are incubated with [alpha-33P]dCTP as the only added deoxynucleoside triphosphate, complexes consisting of nucleotide covalently linked to the 80-kd protein can be detected. The nucleotide moieties present in such complexes include d(pC) and d(pCpA), the 5'-terminal nucleotide and dinucleotide of adenovirus 5 DNA, respectively, as well as some longer oligonucleotides. The formation of these complexes requires the presence of adenovirus DNA containing the attached 55-kd terminal protein and ATP. Extracts from H5ts125-infected cells which are defective in DNA replication catalyze complex formation to the same extent as extracts prepared from wild-type infected cells; thus, the presence of the adenovirus-coded 72-kd DNA-binding protein is apparently not required. Most, if not all, of the 80-kd protein-nucleotide complexes that are formed are noncovalently bound to the input viral DNA. These observations are consistent with the protein-priming model for the initiation of adenovirus DNA replication.

Abstract
Protein kinase activities copurifying with the 72000-Mr DNA-binding protein of adenovirus on DNA-cellulose chromatography and gel filtration in acrylamide/agarose have been partially characterized and purified. One of these kinases was found to phosphorylate efficiently the viral DNA-binding protein in vitro and to be stimulated severalfold by the addition of histones, protamine, or polyamines. The kinase does not, however, phosphorylate histones, protamine, casein, or phosvitin. A second protein kinase was also recovered from single-stranded DNA-cellulose which is able to phosphorylate the 72000-Mr DNA-binding protein, but which is inhibited by the addition of histones. Phosphorylation in vitro of the 72000-Mr DNA-binding protein from the ts125 mutants of adenovirus by the histone-stimulated protein kinase was found to be thermosensitive.

Abstract
We have determined the nucleotide sequence of a region of adenovirus type 5 (Ad5) DNA located between map positions 61.7 and 71.4, which covers the gene form the 72 kD DNA binding protein (DBP) and the sequence encoding the amino-terminal part of the 100 kD protein. Sequence analysis of cDNA copies of DBP mRNA revealed the existence of two abundant species of spliced mRNA molecules. One species consists of two short leader sequences from positions 75.2 (67 and 68 nucleotides long) and 68.8 (77 nucleotides long), respectively, and the main body of the RNA molecules. The other species contains only the leader sequence from position 75.2 and the main body. The amino acid sequence of DBP is encoded entirely by a long open reading frame of 1587 nucleotides in the main body of DBP mRNA. From the nucleotide sequence of the DBP gene it can be derived that DBP contains 529 amino acid residues and has an actual molecular weight of 59,049 daltons. The sites of mutation in the mutants H5hr404 and H5ts125 were determined at the nucleotide level. Single nucleotide alterations were detected in H5hr404 and H5ts125 in the sequences corresponding to the amino-terminal part and the carboxy-terminal part of DBP, respectively. The implications of these mutations are discussed.

Abstract
Early region 2 (E2) of the adenovirus 2 genome specifies a 72,000-dalton DNA-binding protein that is required for viral DNA replication. Electron microscopy studies have detected two major forms of 20S E2 mRNA, one species with a 5' leader from map position 75 and a second form having a leader from position 72 (Chow et al., J. Mol. Biol. 134:265-303, 1979). Only the species with a leader from position 75 was detected at early times; however, both forms were found at late times. We have analyzed the temporal regulation of E2 expression by documenting mRNA accumulation in the cytoplasm. Kinetic studies of pulse-labeled RNAs demonstrated a peak of E2 cytoplasmic RNa synthesis at 10 to 12 h, coinciding with the time of maximal synthesis of the 72,000-dalton DNA binding protein and viral DNA. To estimate the relative abundances of the two major E2 RNA species at various times during infection, total E2 cytoplasmic and polysomal 20S RNAs were isolated by hybridization-selection with specific DNA probes. The leader sequences in the selected RNAs were then quantitated by further RNA-DNA hybridization. We found that the elevated accumulation rate for E2 cytoplasmic RNA at late times reflected an increase in formation of both major species. Moreover, for all time points examined 66% of the mRNA species had a 5' end from map position 75, and 33% had a 5' terminus from position 72. Continuous labeling experiments provided evidence that both RNA forms have comparable half-lives. The results suggest that the two major species encoded by E2 are regulated in a coordinate fashion late in infection.

Abstract
In contrast to cellular or SV40 DNA replication, adenovirus type 5 (Ad5) or type 2 (Ad2) DNA synthesis in isolated nuclei is strongly inhibited by low concentrations of 2',3'-dideoxythymidine 5'-triphosphate (ddTTP). On the basis of differential sensitivity of cellular DNA polymerases, a role of DNA polymerase gamma in adenovirus DNA replication has been proposed. We have investigated the mechanism of inhibition of adenovirus DNA synthesis, using [alpha-32P]ddTTP and other dNTP analogues. Both ddATP and ddGTP were as inhibitory as ddTTP, while ddCTP had an even stronger effect on adenovirus DNA replication. DNA polymerase alpha was resistant to all four ddNTP's, while DNA polymerase gamma was very sensitive. The inhibition by ddTTP in isolated infected nuclei was slowly reversible. [alpha-32P]ddTTP was incorporated into Ad5 DNA as a chain-terminating nucleotide, and the analogue could be used as a substrate by DNA polymerase gamma. Under similar conditions, incorporation in cellular DNA or using DNA polymerase alpha was not observed. The nucleoside analogues ddA and ddC suppressed adenovirus. DNA replication in intact cells and reduced plaque formation. These results provide further evidence for a function of DNA polymerase gamma in adenovirus DNA synthesis.

Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells infected with adenovirus type 2 (Ad2) produced amounts of viral deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) equal to that synthesized in permissively infected HeLa cells. However, there was 6,000-fold less virion produced in CHO cells. Since the structural viral polypeptides were not detected by pulse-labeling CHO cells at various times postinfection, the block in virion formation is located between the synthesis of viral DNA and late proteins. Extracts of CHO cells could also function in a recently reported in vitro Ad2 DNA synthesis system which is dependent upon the addition of exogenous Ad2 DNA covalently linked to a 5'-terminal protein (Ikeda et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 77:5827-5831, 1980). Extracts of infected CHO cytoplasm were able to complement uninfected CHO nuclear extracts to synthesize viral DNA on Ad2 templates. This in vitro replication system has the potential to probe host DNA synthesis requirements as well as viral factors.

Abstract
We have used DNA transfection to identify several regions of the adenovirus genome needed to induce replication of the defective parvovirus, adenovirus-associated virus (AAV). Previous studies have indicated that only early adenovirus functions are needed to aid the replication of AAV. In this report, we demonstrate that three restriction endonuclease fragments of adenovirus DNA are necessary for production of infectious AAV in 293-31 cells (an adenovirus type 5-transformed human embryonic kidney cell line). These fragments map from 28.5 to 29.4, 59.5 to 75.9, and 89.7 to 100 map units on the adenovirus type 2 genome and correspond to the locations of the VAI RNA gene, early region 2, and early region 4, respectively. The 293-31 cell line, which has been found to express early region 1A and 1B proteins, alone is incapable of supporting AAV replication or even AAV DNA synthesis. Additional experiments with adenovirus type 5 host range mutants (group I, hr1 and group II, hr7) indicate, however, that early region 1A provides an essential function(s) for AAV replication, whereas early region 1B probably does not.

Abstract
There is strong evidence for a participation of DNA polymerase gamma in the replication of adenovirus (Ad) DNA. To study a possible additional role of DNA polymerase alpha we measured the effect of aphidicolin on viral DNA replication. In intact cells, aphidicolin inhibits Ad DNA synthesis weakly. The drug concentration required for 50% inhibition of Ad DNA replication was 300-400 fold higher than for a similar effect on cellular DNA synthesis. Such a differential inhibition was also observed in AGMK cells doubly infected with SV40 and the simian adenovirus SA7. No evidence was found for modification of aphidicolin in infected cells or for a change in aphidicolin sensitivity of DNA polymerase alpha after infection. The extent of inhibition of purified DNA polymerase alpha was dependent upon the dCTP concentration. The same situation was observed when DNA synthesis was studied in isolated nuclei from uninfected cells. However, in nuclei from Ad infected cells no effect of dCTP on aphidicolin sensitivity was found. These results were taken as evidence that DNA polymerase alpha does not participate in the replication of adenovirus DNA.

Abstract
The adenovirus-specific DNA-binding protein was isolated from adenovirus type 5-infected KB cells and shown to possess DNase inhibitor activity. The protein decreased the rate of hydrolysis of single-strand DNA proportionately to its concentration in the reaction. Two peaks of activity were obtained upon sedimentation in a glycerol gradient, probably corresponding to the two major adenovirus-specific polypeptides in the preparation (molecular weights, 72,000 and 44,000). The DNase inhibitor activity of the adenovirus DNA-binding protein was distinguishable from that of the cellular DNA-binding protein, which we have described previously (K, Nass and G. D. Frenkel, J. Biol. Chem. 254:3407-3410, 1979), by its pattern of sedimentation and by the effect of temperature on the two activities. For the adenovirus DNA-binding protein, the ratio of DNase inhibitor activity at 43 degrees C to that at 30 degrees C was approximately 14, whereas for the cellular protein this ratio was less than 3. The DNase inhibitor activity with the temperature coefficient of 14 was absent from cells infected with adenovirus type 5 ts125 at 40 degrees C. DNase inhibition is a simple, sensitive, quantitative method for assay of the adenovirus DNA-binding protein.

Abstract
Temperature-sensitive mutants of adenovirus type 5 (H5ts125 and H5ts149), which are conditionally inhibited in the initiation of viral DNA synthesis, have been exploited to investigate the possibility of the initiation of replication in a cell-free system. Nuclei were isolated from human KB cells which had been infected with wild-type or mutant adenovirus. More than 90% of the DNA synthesis taking place in such nuclei was virus-specific and the pattern of drug inhibition suggested that the synthesis required DNA polymerase gamma. Nuclei prepared from cells infected with the H5ts125 temperature-sensitive mutant which have been shifted from 33 degrees C to 39.5 degrees C showed a pattern of synthesis in vitro which began at both ends of the viral genome and gradually spread through the rest of the molecule.
