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
An in vitro system using nuclei from parvovirus H-1-infected cells was used to characterize the influence of inhibitors of mammalian DNA polymerases on viral DNA synthesis. The experiments tested the effects of aphidicolin, which is highly specific for DNA polymerase alpha, and 2',3'-dideoxythymidine-5'-triphosphate (ddTTP), which inhibits cellular DNA polymerases in the order gamma greater than beta greater than alpha. Both aphidicolin and ddTTP were inhibitory, indicating that both polymerase alpha and a ddttp-sensitive enzyme are required for viral DNA synthesis. This was seen more clearly in kinetic measurements, which indicated an initial period of rapid DNA synthesis with the participation of polymerase alpha, followed by a period of less rapid, but more sustained, rate of DNA synthesis carried out by a ddTTP-sensitive enzyme, probably polymerase gamma. One interpretation of the results is that polymerase alpha functions in a strand displacement stage of the viral DNA replication mechanism, whereas polymerase gamma serves to convert the displaced single strands back to double-strand replicative form.

Abstract
In addition to adenoviruses, which are capable of completely helping adenovirus-associated virus (AAV) multiplication, only herpesviruses are known to provide any AAV helper activity, but this activity has been thought to be partial (i.e., AAV DNA, RNA, and protein syntheses are induced, but infectious particles are not assembled). In this study, however, we show that herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) and type 2 (HSV-2) are in fact complete AAV helpers and that AAV type 2 (AAV2) infectivity yields can approach those obtained when coinfections are carried out with a helper adenovirus. AAV helper activity was demonstrated in KB cells with two HSV-1 strains (11124 and 17MP) and an HSV-2 strain (HG52). Each herpesvirus supported AAV2 multiplication with comparable efficiency. AAV2 multiplication was similarly efficient in HSV-1 coinfections of HeLa cells, whereas lower yields were obtained in HEp-2 and primary human embryonic kidney cells. HSV-1 also supported AAV1 multiplication in HeLa cells but, at corresponding multiplicities of infection, AAV1 grew less efficiently than AAV2. Comparisons of the time courses of AAV2 DNA, RNA, and protein syntheses after coinfection with either adenovirus type 5 or HSV-1 revealed that, in each case, the onset of synthesis and attainment of maximal synthesis rate occurred earlier in coinfections with HSV-1. These findings demonstrate the linkage of AAV macromolecular synthesis to an event(s) in the helper virus cycle. Aside from this temporal association, helper-related differences in AAV macromolecular synthesis were not apparent.

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
Adenovirus (Ad) type 2 DNA synthesis can be initiated in the presence of a soluble extract of uninfected HeLa cell nuclei, a 25-60% saturated ammonium sulfate fraction of infected cytoplasm and viral DNA covalently linked to a 5'-terminal protein (Ad DNA-prot). As the purification, from either the nuclei or cytoplasm, of factors active in DNA replication proceeded, various nonreplicative reactions which incorporate labeled deoxynucleotides were uncovered. In order to distinguish replicative from repair reactions, an assay was developed in which the Ad DNA-prot was digested with Xba I, all of the fragments so produced were used (without separation) in a replication reaction, and the products were assayed by electrophoresis on neutral agarose gels. In replicative reactions, most of the radioactivity was incorporated into the terminal fragments, with the internal fragments remaining unlabeled. Infected cytoplasm contains a "discrimination" function in addition to specific factors for Ad DNA replication. The discrimination factors inhibit the nonspecific nucleotide incorporation by uninfected HeLa nuclear extracts on Ad DNA-prot. The specific replicative incorporation into the terminal Ad DNA-prot fragments has also allowed an independent assay for reinitiation of progeny molecules synthesized in vitro. After the first round of replication, the 5' strand of the progeny duplex from each end is labeled. These same labeled strands will be displaced during the second round of replication and appear in new bands which have been shown to be the single-strand equivalents of the terminal fragments. Thus, at least two rounds of Ad DNA synthesis can initiate at each terminus in vitro. The appearance of displaced single strands requires DNA replication because the addition of dideoxycytidine triphosphate after the first round of synthesis prevents the displacement reaction. Both the progeny single- and double-stranded DNA appear to be linked to protein.

Abstract
A method as devised allowing the preparation of hnRNA-containing ribonucleproteins (hnRNP) frm HeLa cells infected with adenovirus type 2 under conditions where the extraction of viral replication complexes as minimal. Approximately 60% of the RNA from such hnRNP hybridized with adenovirus DNA. The hnRNP from infected cells had the same general characteristics as those from uninfected cells. Their size was heterogeneous (30-260 S) and depended upon that of their RNA. Their CsCl densities were identical (1.39-1.40 g/ml), indicating the same protein:RNA ratio. Their proteins were found in the same molecular weight range, between 25 000 and 200 000. The major proteins of hnRNP from HeLa cells were present in hnRNP from adenovirus-infected cells. As 60% of the cellular RNA was replaced by adenovirus RNA in hnRNP, this in dicated that there was not stringent specificity in the RNA-protein interactions. The relative proportions of the proteins were identifical in both cases, suggesting that the hnRNP assembly was independent of nucleotide sequences at least for the major proteins. The hnRNP from infected and uninfected cells differed by the size of their RNA, which was larger after infection, and by the presence of six additional minor polypeptides after infection. However, it cannot be excluded that the presence of these polypeptides in hnRNP resulted from non-specific adsorption.

Abstract
Herpes simplex type 1 (HSV)-infected Vero cells can be permeabilized by a combination of hypotonic shock and a mild emulsifier, gum arabic. Permeabilized cells will incorporate triphosphate precursors into viral and host DNA in vitro in ratios similar to those seen in vivo. This reaction is ATP-dependent and is shown to be replicative by the single strand density shift of DNA synthesized in the presence of BrdUTP. The product is heterogeneous in size, and contains a significant proportion of rapidly sedimenting forms and of unit size (55S) viral DNA. The presence of polyamines and EGTA (a specific chelator of Ca2+ ions) in the labeling medium is shown to be necessary to maintain the integrity of the replicating DNA. The average size of newly synthesized single strands, however, is smaller than seen in vivo. The reaction is sensitive to phosphonoacetic acid added at the time of labeling, at concentrations which inhibit in vivo synthesis only after one hour of pre-exposure. These properties make permeabilized cell monolayers an attractive system for the study of HSV DNA replication.

Abstract
Soluble extracts of adenovirus-infected HeLa cell nuclei support DNA replication on exogenous adenovirus DNA templates. Conditions of synthesis using both wild-type and temperature-sensitive extracts have been defined. Nuclear extracts prepared from cells permissively infected with the adenovirus mutant H5ts125 expressed the temperature-sensitive phenotype and could be inactivated at 37 degrees C in vitro. These extracts were completely complemented by the addition of wild-type adenovirus DNA binding protein but not by H5ts125 DNA binding protein. Enhancement by binding protein in the mutant extracts represents replication, as demonstrated by the production of full-sized products and orderly chain elongation originating, as in vivo, at both ends of the linear DNA. Replicative synthesis required the 5'-terminal protein bound covalently to template DNA and could be inhibited by denaturation of this 55,000-dalton protein. Various inhibitors of eukaryotic DNA polymerases, such as aphidicolin and 2',3'-dideoxythymidine triphosphate, inhibited replication of exogenous adenovirus templates in this system as they do in previously reported systems that only elongate endogenous replicating intermediates.

Abstract
Aphidicolin inhibits adenovirus DNA replication in HeLa cells and in a cell-free, infected, nuclear extract in which viral DNA is elongated. The compound inhibits alpha DNA polymerase, extensively purified from HeLa cells, but has little or no effect on the beta or gamma DNA polymerases similarly purified. Aphidicolin does not affect thymidine uptake by cells nor does synthesis as it also inhibits DNA replication in uninfected cells. The inhibition by aphidicolin is reversible if the drug is removed within 18 hrs after addition to HeLa or Chinese Hamster Ovary cells but the cells are irreversibly affected if the drug remains for 48 hours.

Abstract
An adenovirus (Ad) DNA replication complex extracted from infected HeLa nuclei could be purified free of the bulk of intracellular DNA polymerase activity by sedimetation in neutral sucrose gradients. However, the replication complex still retained some alpha and gamma DNA-polymerase activity. Since this complex is inhibited by 2', 3' dideoxythymidine-5'-triphosphate (ddTTP), an inhibitor of DNA polymerase gamma, a functional role for this enzyme in Ad DNA replication is suggested. Similar inhibition by ddTTP in intact Ad infected nuclei and comparable inhibition of Ad DNA synthesis in whole cells by dideoxythymidine (ddThy) are consistent with a role for DNA polymerase gamma. Uninfected HeLa nuclei or whole cells are not similarly inhibited by ddTTP or DDThy respectively. Such data does not rule out an additional functional role for other DNA polymerases, and recent experiments from this laboratory (1) suggest that DNA polymerase alpha is also involved in Ad DNA synthesis.

Abstract
A soluble extract from the nuclei of HeLa cells infected with adenovirus 5 (Ad5) carries out the semiconservative replication of exogenously added Ad5 DNA in vitro. Maximal DNA synthesis is observed when DNA-protein complex, isolated from Ad5 virions, is added as template. DNA-protein complex from virions of the closely related virus, adenovirus 2, is also active. In contrast, very little in vitro DNA synthesis is observed when deproteinized Ad5 DNA or DNA from a heterologous source (bacteriophage T7) is added as template. The product of the in vitro reaction consists of long Ad5 DNA strands that are hydrogen-bonded, but not covalently linked, to the input DNA template. During the course of the in vitro reaction, branched molecules with structural features identical to in vivo replication intermediates are formed. These findings support the conclusion that replication in the in vitro system closely resembles adenovirus DNA replication in vivo. The system provides an assay that should be useful for the purification and subsequent characterization of viral and cellular proteins involved in DNA replication.

Abstract
Three subnuclear systems capable of continuing many aspects of simian virus 40 (SV40) DNA replication were characterized in an effort to define the minimum requirements for "normal" DNA replication in vitro. Nuclear extracts, prepared by incubating nuclei isolated from SV40-infected CV-1 cells in a hypotonic buffer to release both SV40 replicating and mature chromosomes, were either centrifuged to separate the total SV40 nucleoprotein complexes from the soluble nucleosol or fractionated on sucrose gradients to provide purified SV40 replicating chromosomes. With nuclear extracts, CV-1 cell cytosol stimulated total DNA synthesis, elongation of nascent DNA chains, maturation and joining of "Okazaki pieces," and the conversion of replicating viral DNA into covalently closed, superhelical DNA. Nucleoprotein complexes responded similarly, but frequently the response was reduced by 10 to 30%. In contrast, isolated replicating chromosomes in the presence of cytosol appeared only to complete and join Okazaki pieces already present on the template; without cytosol, Okazaki pieces incorporated alpha-(32)P-labeled deoxynucleoside triphosphates but failed to join. Consequently, replicating chromosomes failed to extensively continue nascent DNA chain growth, and the conversion of viral replicating DNA into mature DNA was seven to eight times less than that observed in nuclear extracts. Addition of neither cytosol nor nucleosol corrected this problem. In the presence of cytosol, nonspecific endonuclease activity was not a problem in any of the three in vitro systems. Extensive purification of replicating chromosomes was limited by three as yet irreversible phenomena. First, replicating chromosomes isolated in a low-ionic-strength medium had a limited capability to continue DNA synthesis. Second, diluting either nuclear extracts or replicating chromosomes before incubation in vitro stimulated total DNA synthesis but was accompanied by the simultaneous appearance of small-molecular-weight nascent DNA not associated with intact viral DNA templates and a decrease in the synthesis of covalently closed viral DNA. Although this second phenomenon appeared similar to the first, template concentration alone could not account for the failure of purified replicating chromosomes to yield covalently closed DNA. Finally, preparation of nucleoprotein complexes in increasing concentrations of NaCl progressively decreased their ability to continue DNA replication. Exposure to 0.3 M NaCl removed one or more factors required for DNA synthesis which could be replaced by addition of cytosol. However, higher NaCl concentrations yielded nucleoprotein complexes that had relatively no endogenous DNA synthesis activity and that no longer responded to cytosol. These data demonstrate that continuation of endogenous DNA replication in vitro requires both the soluble cytosol fraction and a complex nucleoprotein template whose ability to continue DNA synthesis depends on its concentration and ionic environment during its preparation.

Abstract
A soluble adenovirus DNA replication system has been prepared in extracts of HeLa cells infected with the temperature-sensitive mutant H5ts125. These nuclear extracts synthesize full-sized viral DNA at 30 degrees but are temperature sensitive in this function at 38 degrees. A 72,000-dalton DNA-binding protein purified from cells infected with wild-type virus complements the temperature-sensitive defect and restores viral DNA replication to 74% of normal values.
