Abstract
Several C/EBP binding sites within the Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) long terminal repeat (LTR) and gag enhancers were mutated, and the effect of these mutations on viral gene expression was assessed. Minimal site-specific mutations in each of three adjacent C/EBP binding sites in the LTR reduced steady-state viral RNA levels. Double mutation of the two 5' proximal LTR binding sites resulted in production of 30% of wild-type levels of virus. DNase I footprinting analysis of mutant DNAs indicated that the mutations blocked C/EBP binding at the affected sites. Additional C/EBP binding sites were identified upstream of the 3' LTR and within the 5' end of the LTRs. Point mutations in the RSV gag intragenic enhancer region, which blocked binding of C/EBP at two of three adjacent C/EBP sites, also reduced virus production significantly. Nuclear extracts prepared from both chicken embryo fibroblasts (CEFs) and chicken muscle contained proteins binding to the same RSV DNA sites as did C/EBP, and mutations that prevented C/EBP binding also blocked binding of these chicken proteins. It appears that CEFs and chicken muscle contain distinct proteins binding to these RSV DNA sites; the CEF binding protein was heat stable, as is C/EBP, while the chicken muscle protein was heat sensitive.

Abstract
The EFII cis element is a 38-bp sequence at the 5' end of the Rous sarcoma virus long terminal repeat, extending from nucleotides -229 to -192 (with respect to the viral transcription start site), which is recognized by sequence-specific DNA-binding proteins in avian fibroblast nuclear extracts (L. Sealy and R. Chalkley, Mol. Cell. Biol. 7:787-798, 1987). We demonstrate that multiple copies of the EFII cis element strongly activate transcription of a reporter gene in vivo. We correlate the region of the EFII cis element which activates transcription in vivo with the in vitro binding site for three nuclear factors, EFIIa, EFIIb, and EFIIc. The sequence motif recognized by EFIIa, -b, and -c is also found in consensus binding sites for members of a rapidly growing family of transcription factors related to the CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein (C/EBP). EFIIa, -b, and -c are present in fibroblast and epithelial cell lines from various species but are much less abundant in differentiated rat liver and kidney cells. The EFIIa binding activity is particularly abundant in an avian B-cell lymphoma line. As judged from molecular weight analysis, cell type distribution, and sequence recognition properties, the EFII factors under study appear to differ from most of the previously described C/EBP-related factors and thus may expand the diversity of the C/EBP family.

Abstract
Retroviruses, pararetroviruses, and related retrotransposons generate terminally redundant RNAs by transcription of a template flanked by long terminal repeats in which initiation occurs within the 5' long terminal repeat sequences and 3'-end processing occurs within the 3' long terminal repeat sequences. Processing of avian sarcoma virus RNA is relatively inefficient; approximately 15% of the viral RNA transcripts are read-through products; i.e., they are not processed at the viral poly(A) addition site but at sites in the cellular sequence further downstream. In this report, we show that the efficiency of processing at the viral site is further reduced by deletion of two distant upstream sequences: (i) a 606-nucleotide sequence in the gag gene containing a cis-acting negative regulator of splicing and (ii) a 136-nucleotide sequence spanning the env 3' splice site. The deletion of either or both upstream regions increases the levels of read-through products of both unspliced and spliced viral RNA. In contrast, deletion of the src 3' splice site does not affect the efficiency of processing at the viral poly(A) addition site. The effects on 3'-end processing are not correlated either with distance from the promoter to the poly(A) addition site or with the overall level of viral RNA splicing. Substitution of the avian sarcoma virus poly(A) signal with the simian virus 40 early or late poly(A) signal relieves the requirement for the distant upstream sequences. We propose that cellular factors, which may correspond to splicing factors, bound to the upstream viral sequences may interact with factors bound at the avian sarcoma virus poly(A) signal to stabilize the polyadenylation-cleavage complex and allow for more efficient 3'-end processing.

Abstract
We report the isolation and characterization of cDNA clones that encode a protein with the same DNA binding specificity as the immunoglobulin heavy chain enhancer binding protein E (muEBP-E). We call the gene encoding this protein Ig/EBP-1. A fusion protein encoded by the cDNA binds specifically to muEBP-E-binding sites (E sites) in both the IgH enhancer and the VH1 promoter. Sequence analysis reveals that Ig/EBP-1 is a member of the "basic-zipper" family of DNA-binding proteins that are characterized by basic regions and heptad repeats of leucine residues. Among known family members, Ig/EBP-1 demonstrates highest homology to C/EBP throughout the DNA-binding domain and leucine repeat region. Ig/EBP-1 and C/EBP have highly overlapping binding specificities; both cloned proteins bind to the IgH enhancer and the VH1 promoter E sites, and Ig/EBP-1 binds to previously characterized C/EBP binding sites in the Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) LTR and the murine albumin promoter. Consistent with their homology in the leucine repeat region, Ig/EBP-1 and C/EBP form heterodimers; Ig/EBP-1 is the first member of this family that has been found to heterodimerize with the well-characterized C/EBP. Ig/EBP-1 mRNA is present in all tissues and cell lines examined, although its levels vary almost 20-fold from different sources, with highest levels in early B cells. In tissues where Ig/EBP-1 and C/EBP are both present, heterodimers may be functionally important. The presence of Ig/EBP-1 in fibroblasts and other tissues where C/EBP is not expressed suggests that Ig/EBP-1 may be functionally important for the activity of the RSV enhancer in these cell types. Finally, elevated expression of Ig/EBP-1 in early B cells may explain in part the enhancer-independent activity of VH promoters early in B-cell development.

Abstract
The LTR, v-src, LTR provirus, which arose by the reverse transcription and integration of src mRNA in the H-19 hamster tumor, has been successfully rescued by fusion with chicken fibroblasts infected with Rous-associated virus RAV-1. One rescued virus, E6, acquired 1 kilobase of the 5' end of the gag gene structure. Recombination took place in the region of 15-nucleotide homology exactly between v-src exon (position 7054) and gag (position 1417). This recombination resulted in the alteration of src splice acceptor site sequences, but this site is maintained as a functional splice acceptor site. The nucleotide structure of the long terminal repeat of recombinant E6 virus suggests that it arose by the intermolecular jump of reverse transcription from RAV-1 to src mRNA and then the switch of templates between already depicted regions of homology. The second jump of reverse transcription was apparently an intramolecular event. The acquisition of 1 kilobase of the 5' gag by E6 resulted in maintaining the balance of unspliced and spliced E6 RNAs and assured the replication advantage of rescued E6 virus over rescued F6 virus, the genome of which corresponds to that present in ancestral H-19 cells.

Abstract
Transcription from the long terminal repeat (LTR) of Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) in rat 3Y1 fibroblasts was dependent on the presence of serum. Within 1 hr after addition of serum to a serum-deprived culture, there was a fivefold increase in the level of transcripts initiated at the LTR. This stimulation did not require synthesis of new proteins. The induction of transcription by serum was mostly dependent on two CCAAT boxes in the LTR. Within 1 hr after addition of serum, there was also an increase in the level of a nuclear protein that bound to the two CCAAT boxes, even in the presence of cycloheximide. This serum-induced CCAAT factor also bound CCAAT sequences from other promoters, for example, those of human heat shock protein 70, human c-Ha-ras, and human histone 1, but not to the adenovirus origin of replication or the SV40 enhancer core sequence, suggesting that it was related to CP1 or CP2. Expression from the RSV LTR was not dependent on serum in v-src-transformed cells. Using temperature-sensitive v-src, it was shown that the tyrosine kinase activity of the oncogene increased the amount of CCAAT factor that was present in the nucleus. These findings demonstrate that a basal transcription factor, the CCAAT-binding factor, could be a second messenger for transducing a primary signal from serum to the cellular transcriptional apparatus. This also suggests a pathway by which a tyrosine kinase oncogene could influence the transcription of several genes in the nucleus.

Abstract
We have identified a new protein factor (EFIII) in nuclear extracts of quail fibroblasts and chick embryos which binds specifically in vitro to a 26-bp region of the Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) long terminal repeat (LTR) enhancer. The EFIII binding site in the RSV LTR exhibits a strong sequence homology to the serum response element (SRE). The SRE is a 22-bp cis-acting DNA sequence element, first identified upstream of the human c-fos gene, which can confer serum inducibility to heterologous promotors. The binding site for EFIII in the RSV LTR enhancer is also of interest because this region has been implicated in mediating trans-activation of the RSV LTR enhancer by the protein product of the v-fos gene. We show that avian EFIII binds with equal efficiency to both its binding sites in the RSV LTR and the human c-fos SRE. A dyad symmetry element in the c-fos SRE, previously shown to be critical for binding of the cognate human serum response factor (SRF), is also critical for EFIII binding to the LTR SRE-homologous sequences; similarly, EFIII and the human SRF exhibit identical protein-DNA contacts with their corresponding recognition sequences. We suggest that EFIII may be the avian homolog of the mammalian SRF and, in fact, have evidence to indicate that the RSV LTR is serum responsive.

Abstract
The internal enhancer binding factor (IBF) that specifically binds sequences within the gag gene internal enhancer of Rous sarcoma virus Schmidt-Ruppin A was purified to near homogeneity from BHK cells. The polypeptides that constituted IBF DNA-binding activity were identified by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel analysis. As isolated from BHK cells, IBF consisted of two different but related polypeptides. One (IBF alpha) had a molecular weight of 40,000; the other (IBF beta) had a molecular weight of 20,000 and appeared to be a proteolytic product of IBF alpha. The site within the gag gene to which IBF bounds in vitro (internal enhancer site 2; nucleotides 856 to 878 of the Rous sarcoma virus genome) were demonstrated to function as a cis-acting transcriptional stimulatory element both in vivo and in vitro. By using HeLa cell nuclear transcription extracts, purified IBF was found to function as a trans-acting transcription factor that stimulated transcription in vitro. Purified IBF was also demonstrated to be very similar to EBP20 (K. Carlberg, T. A. Ryden, and K. Beemon, J. Virol. 62:1617-1624, 1988), and it may well belong to the same family of DNA-binding proteins.

Abstract
DNA-protein interactions involving enhancer and promoter sequences within the U3 regions of several avian retroviral long terminal repeats (LTRs) were studied by DNase I footprinting. The rat CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein, C/EBP, bound to all four viral LTRs examined. The Rous sarcoma virus binding site corresponded closely to the 5' limit of the LTR enhancer; nucleotides -225 to -188 were protected as a pair of adjacent binding domains. The Fujinami sarcoma virus LTR bound C/EBP at a single site at nucleotides -213 to -195. C/EBP also bound to the promoter region of the enhancerless Rous-associated virus-0 LTR at nucleotides -77 to -57. The avian myeloblastosis virus LTR bound C/EBP at three sites: nucleotides -262 to -246, -154 to -134, and -55 to -39. We have previously observed binding of C/EBP to an enhancer in the gag gene of avian retroviruses. A heat-treated nuclear extract from chicken liver bound to all of the same retroviral sequences as did C/EBP. Alignment of the avian retroviral binding sequences with the published binding sites for C/EBP in two CCAAT boxes and in the simian virus 40, polyoma, and murine sarcoma virus enhancers suggested TTGNNGCTAATG as a consensus sequence for binding of C/EBP. When two bases of this consensus sequence were altered by site-specific mutagenesis of the Rous sarcoma virus LTR, binding of the heat-stable chicken protein was eliminated.

Abstract
Retrovirus replication requires the production of both spliced and unspliced viral RNA from a single RNA transcript. In contrast, cellular RNA precursors with introns almost completely spliced. The cis elements and virus-coded trans factors which determine the extent to which Rous sarcoma virus RNA is spliced to src mRNA were investigated by transfecting chicken embryo fibroblasts with cloned wild-type and mutant DNA followed by the analysis of viral RNA. Two cis-acting regions important in the negative control of splicing were detected. Cell cultures transfected with a clone deleted in 80% of the src intron (nucleotide 1149 to nucleotide 6574) demonstrated only a 2-fold reduction in the ratio of unspliced to spliced RNA relative to the wild-type clone, whereas cultures transfected with clones which were further deleted in the gag gene region (between nucleotide 630 and nucleotide 5258) demonstrated an approximate 20-fold reduction. Cell cultures which were transfected with clones deleted only between nucleotides 543 and 1806 demonstrated only a three- to fourfold reduction in the unspliced-to-spliced RNA ratio, suggesting that at least one other region of the src intron can partially compensate for the deletion of the gag region. Both regions appeared to act in cis on the distribution of unspliced and spliced RNA since the ratios were not altered by cotransfection with helper virus DNA.
