Abstract
Nuclear footprinting revealed a temporal program involving factor binding to the repetitive GC-box DNA elements present in the simian virus 40 regulatory region. This program specified ordered and directional binding to these tandem regulatory sequences in vivo during the late phase of infection. The program was interrupted by the DNA replication inhibitor aphidicolin or by inactivation of the viral replication factor simian virus 40 T antigen, suggesting a link between viral DNA replication and new factor binding. Measurements of DNA accumulation in viruses lacking either the distal or proximal halves of the GC-box region suggested that the region has a dual role in replication control. Overall, the data point to important relationships between DNA replication and factor binding to the GC-box DNA, a multifunctional regulatory region.

Abstract
We have investigated the biochemical properties of Xenopus laevis p53. With an in vitro binding assay, we can detect a specific association between X. laevis p53 and simian virus 40 large T antigen. Furthermore, X. laevis p53 expressed in monkey COS cells is stably associated with this viral antigen. Like mammalian p53, X. laevis p53 in complex with simian virus 40 large T antigen exhibits a 20-fold increase of its half-life. On the other hand, X. laevis p53 is unable to associate either in vivo or in vitro with adenovirus type 5 E1B 55-kilodalton protein. We show by an immunological technique that X. laevis p53 forms specific complexes with mammalian hsp72 and hsp73 heat shock proteins only at a temperature well above the optimal growth temperature for X. laevis. Our results suggest that the protein-binding properties of p53 are closely related to the functional activity of the protein.

Abstract
The human HBL-100 cell line harbours SV40 DNA integrated in tandem at a unique site. The SV40 T-antigen expressed in these cells is defective in a function essential to the replication of the viral genome. The integrated SV40 sequences were molecularly cloned in a bacteriophage, and a subclone (plasmid pSVHBI) containing a complete SV40 DNA was isolated. As compared to SV40 wild-type strain 776, sequence analysis of pSVHBI early region revealed the presence of several DNA alterations. Among these, a point mutation at position 3199, predicting a change at amino-acid 540 of arginine to isoleucine, was shown by marker rescue to be responsible for the deficiency of T-antigen. This novel mutation further delimits one of the T-antigen domains involved in SV40 DNA replication. Transfection experiments demonstrated that the transforming activity of the SV40 genome from HBL-100 cells is still preserved. Moreover, several transformed human cell clones thus obtained could be permanently established in culture.

Abstract
The effects of heat treatment of CV1 cells infected with simian virus 40 (SV40) on viral and cellular protein synthesis were investigated by one-dimensional and two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. A 12-h heat treatment during the late phase of the viral life-cycle inhibits VP1 synthesis. No inhibition of normal cellular proteins is apparent, but heat-shock proteins are strongly induced and accumulate in the cells. Inhibition of VP1 synthesis in infected cells is demonstrated to occur also after arsenite treatment, another agent known to induce heat-shock proteins. Northern blot analysis of cytoplasmic RNA demonstrated a decrease in the abundance of late SV40 mRNAs thus showing that the inhibition occurs at the transcriptional or immediately post-transcriptional level. Cumulative labeling with [3H]thymidine of viral DNA showed that the decrease in the abundance of late mRNAs is not due to a blocking of viral DNA synthesis. Immunofluorescence microscopy and immunoprecipitation analysis show that heat and arsenite treatments also affect the synthesis of T antigen. These results suggest that heat-shock proteins may play a role in the inhibition of SV40 virus gene functions.

Abstract
The nuclear distribution of the large T antigen (T-Ag) during lytic infection of CV1 monkey kidney cells with SV40 virus was studied by immunoelectron microscopy. The viral protein was associated with the cellular chromatin and also accumulated within a small number of clearly delimited areas of the nucleoplasm. These T-Ag-rich areas were devoid of viral particles but contain 3-10 nm DNA filaments in an amorphous matrix. We have named these areas 'viral DNA/T-Ag loci.' The combination of the immunostaining for T-Ag with ultrastructural autoradiography revealed that these viral DNA/T-Ag loci were the sites of active SV40 DNA synthesis. We suggest that the viral DNA/T-Ag loci may represent definite structural domains specifically involved in viral DNA replication regulated by SV40-T antigen.

Abstract
The epithelial HBL-100 cell line was established in vitro from milk of an apparently healthy woman. It exhibits characteristics of transformation from the very beginning and evolves during in vitro maintenance, until becoming tumorigenic in nude mice. This immortal cell line represents a useful model for studying the progression of human epithelial cells toward malignancy. In the course of our investigations we detected a 94K protein in HBL-100 cells obtained from four different sources. This protein is shown to be indistinguishable from the SV40 large T-antigen on the basis of: Recognition by polyclonal and different monoclonal antibodies. Partial peptide map analysis. Specific binding capacity to the SV40 DNA origin of replication. The presence of a tandemly integrated SV40 genome is demonstrated by Southern blotting. Successful rescue of SV40 DNA by fusion with permissive COS-7, but not CV-1 cells, indicates that the SV40 T-antigen from HBL-100 cells is defective in a function(s) essential to the replication of the viral DNA. The possible origin of the SV40 genetic information that we have detected in HBL-100 cells and the implications of this finding on studies involving this cell line are discussed.

Abstract
Muntjac cells in which the SV40 virus neither readily causes transformation nor replicates were used to study the effect of SV40 infection on cell ploidy and the influence of ploidy on the concentration of T antigen, which is required for the initiation of viral DNA synthesis. Both the DNA content, as measured by the flow microfluorometry of propidium iodide-DNA fluorescence, and the average number of chromosomes per cell indicated that infection with SV40 did not alter the ploidy of the host cell. SV40 infection had no effect on the ploidy distribution of muntjac cells. After immunofluorescence staining with anti-T serum and fluorescein-labeled anti-gamma G, infected and uninfected cultures were compared. In uninfected cells incubated with a 1:20 dilution of anti-T serum no fluorescence could be observed by fluorescence microscopy, but when examined by flow microfluorometry, fluorescence was detected after staining with as little as 1000-fold diluted antiserum. Determination of the amount of T antigen and DNA content in the same cell by simultaneous measurement of fluorescein isothiocyanate-conjugate and propidium iodide fluorescence, indicated that the cellular concentration of T antigen did not vary with the ploidy of the genome or the number of nuclei per cell. These results suggest that gene dosage is not a factor which determines the permissive environment for SV40 replication.

Abstract
Simian Virus (SV40) transcriptional intermediates (T.I.) were isolated from infected cell nuclei incubated in vitro in the presence of the four ribonucleoside triphosphates. The nascent mRNA strands in the viral DNA-RNA hybrid molecules were hydrogen bonded to their template by 200-250 nucleotides on the average, as judged from the extent of their RNase resistance and the aspect of T.I. under electron microscope after treatment with 50 per cent formamide. The RNA polymerase involved (RNA polymerase II) synthesized up to full length transcripts at a rate of approximately 150 nucleotides/min. at 25 degrees C. Each SV40 infected cell was found to contain about 200 active T.I. molecules at the peak of late transcription. The DNA in the T.I. molecules was exclusively form I DNA only in cell infected with the tsA30 mutant of SV40 that had been transferred to non-permissive temperature in order to arrest DNA replication, but both form I DNA and molecules behaving as replicative intermediates (R.I.) in wild type infected cells.

Abstract
In addition to the virus-coded large-T and small-t antigens, two new classes of proteins were immunoprecipitated by anti-simian virus 40 (SV40) tumor serum from extracts of various SV40-transformed cell lines. These were as follows: (i) proteins (termed "super-T proteins") with an Mr higher than that of large-T antigen (86,000), which were found in many SV40-transformed cell lines derived from mouse and rat cells (super-T proteins and large-T antigen appeared to have closely related structures as judged by the Chromobead elution patterns of their methionine-labeled tryptic peptides); (ii) proteins (termed "55K proteins") with an Mr ranging from 50,000 to 60,000, which were present in all SV40-transformed cell lines examined so far, including those obtained by chromosome-mediated gene transfer. The 55K proteins were not structurally related to large-T antigens, as judged by the Chromobead elution patterns of their methionine-labeled tryptic peptides. Our data are compatible with the assumption that the 55K proteins are largely or totally cell coded.

Abstract
Treatment of Simian Virus 40 (SV40) infected monkey cells with fluorophenylalanine (FPA) resulted in increased uptake of thymidine by the cells, and progressive inhibition of both viral and cellular DNA synthesis. Viral DNA synthesis was more sensitive to inhibition by FPA than cell DNA synthesis. Synthesis of SV40 T antigens was however unaffected by FPA, as judged from immunofluorescence assays. The M.W. of the major polypetides immunoprecipitated from cell extracts by antibodies from tumor bearing hamster sera was similarly unaffected. It is suggested that T antigen synthesized in the presence of FPA is non functional.

Abstract
Both exponentially growing and serum-arrested subcloned CV-1 cell cultures were infected with simian virus 40 (SV40). By 24 h after infection 96% of the nuclei of these permissive cells contained SV40 T-antigen. Analysis of the average DNA content per cell at various times after infection indicated that by 24 h most of the cells contained amounts of DNA similar to those normally found in G(2) cells. Analysis of cell cycle distributions indicated that a G(2) DNA complement was maintained by over 90% of the cells in the infected populations 24 to 48 h postinfection. Cells continued to synthesize SV40 DNA during the first 50 h after infection, and cytopathic effect was first observed 60 h after inoculation. After infection the number of mitotic cells that could be recovered by selective detachment decreased precipitously and was drastically reduced by 24 h. A study of the kinetics of decline in the number of mitotic cells suggests that this decline is related to an event during the cell cycle at or near the G(1)-S-phase border upon which commencement of SV40 DNA replication apparently depends. It was concluded that after SV40 infection, stationary cells are induced to cycle, and cycling cells complete one round of cellular DNA synthesis but do not divide. Although the infected cells continue to synthesize viral DNA, they do not appear able to reinitiate cellular DNA replication units. These results imply that the abundance of T-antigen (produced independently of cell cycle phase) in the presence of the enzymes required for continued DNA synthesis is not sufficient for reinitiation of cellular DNA synthesis.

Abstract
Perturbations of Simian Virus 40 (SV40) DNA replication by ultraviolet (UV) light during the lytic cycle in permissive monkey CV-1 cells resemble those seen in host cell DNA replication. Formation of Form I DNA molecules (i.e. completion of SV40 DNA synthesis) was more sensitive to UV irradiation than synthesis of replicative intermediates or Form II molecules, consistent with inhibition of DNA chain elongation. The observed amounts of [3H]thymidine incorporated in UV-irradiated molecules could be predicted on the assumption that pyrimidine dimers are responsible for blocking nascent DNA strand growth. The relative proportion of labeled Form I molecules in UV-irradiated cultures rapidly increased to near-control values with incubation after 20 or 40 J/m2 of light (0.9--1.0 or 1.8--2.0 dimers per SV40 genome, respectively). This rapid increase and the failure of Form II molecules to accumulate suggest that SV40 growing forks can rapidly bypass many dimers. Form II molecules formed after UV irradiation were not converted to linear (Form III) molecules by the dimer-specific T4 endonuclease V, suggesting either that there are no gaps opposite dimers in these molecules or that T4 endonuclease V cannot use Form II molecules as substrates.

Abstract
The template activities for the processes of replication and transcription were compared for recently replicated ("new") and uniformly labeled ("old") simian virus 40 (SV40) DNA in infected monkey cells (line TC7). New SV40 DNA (pulse-labeled for 1 h) served as a template for a second round of replication with a relatively high probability (8% of the DNA replicated per h) for a period of 5 h, after which time its template activity rapidly decreased by severalfold. Old SV40 DNA (labeled for 24 h) functioned as a template for replication with a constant probability (1.8% of the DNA replicated per h) for at least 12 h. The proportion of RNA polymerase with nonreplicated and with recently replicated (bromodeoxyuridine-substituted) viral DNA was determined by an assay that used the Triton-soluble SV40 transcription complex. The proportion of RNA polymerase associated with nonreplicated SV40 DNA decreased very slowly (to 50% in 6 h), strongly suggesting that replicating viral genomes are not required as templates for the initiation of late transcription. This hypothesis was supported by the finding that the RNA synthesized in vitro was associated with covalently closed circular SV40 DNA. Furthermore, after 9 h in bromodeoxyuridine, the recently replicated viral DNA had nearly three times more RNA polymerase per unit of DNA than did the nonreplicated DNA. We thus conclude that recently replicated SV40 DNA is utilized preferentially as a template for transcription and for replication.

Abstract
Growing CV1 cells were infected with simian virus 40 (SV40), and the levels of DNA polymerases-alpha, -beta, and -gamma were analyzed in the cytoplasm, nuclear Triton wash, and nucleus. In the cytoplasmic fraction, the amount of alpha-, beta-, or gamma-polymerase remained unaltered after SV40 infection. The activity of DNA polymerase-alpha increased five- to sixfold in the nuclear Triton wash and threefold in the nuclei and then remained enhanced only inside the nuclei. That of DNA polymerases-beta and gamma increased mostly in the nuclei after infection. These results suggest that DNA polymerase-alpha could be the major enzyme involved in SV40 DNA replication.

Abstract
The major capsid protein (VP1) of simian virus 40 (SV40) has been analyzed by two-dimensional electrophoresis. This system separates protein according to isoelectric point by isoelectric-focusing, and according to molecular weight by sodium dodecylsulphate electrophoresis (O'Farrell, 1975). VP1 synthesis in infected CV-1 cells can be monitored directly by analysis of unfractionated whole cell extracts; the resolution of VP1 from cellular proteins allows its detection as early as 13 hr after infection. The two-dimensional separation of VP1 reveals that it is heterogeneous, consisting of one major protein (molecular weight 47,000 daltons and isoelectric point of approximately pH 6.8) and five minor protein components. The minor forms of VP1 are 10% of the total VP1 and differ from the major form of VP1 both in molecular weight (by approximately 500 daltons) and isoelectric point (ranging from approximately pH 6.7 to pH 6.9). Evidence is presented to show that two of the minor forms are phosphorylated derivatives of VP1, and it is further suggested that all the different forms of VP1 are the result of modifications of the primary product of translation. A temperature-sensitive mutant of the BC complementation group (BC11) of SV40 results in the synthesis of VP1 with an altered electrophoretic mobility; both the major form of VP1 and the minor forms are shifted in their isoelectric points. In addition to the specific case of SV40, two aspects of these studies should be generally significant to investigators studying eucaryotic gene expression by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis: first, the genetic origin of a protein can be determined by a temperature-sensitive mutation which causes a charge change in the resultant protein; and second, two or more protein spots on a two-dimensional separation may be the products of a single gene.

Abstract
SV40 virion production was enhanced when semipermissive Chinese hamster kidney cells were treated with 5-iodo-2'-deoxyuridine (IUDR), prior to infection either with virus or viral-DNA. Pretreatment did not increase SV40 replication in fully permissive monkey kidney and nonpermissive Syrian hamster or mouse embryo cells.

Abstract
This paper describes the purification of polysomal RNA from SV40-lytically infected CV1 (monkey) cells and separation of the two distinct classes of SV40-specific mRNA sedimenting at 16 S and 19 S. These classes have been hybridized with the whole SV40 DNA genome as well as with the SV40 Hind fragments. The results have permitted the mapping of SV40-specific late 16 S mRNA from approximately 0.945 to 0.175 map units.

Abstract
In situ hybridization has been used as a quantitative method to study the replication of SV40 during lytic infection. Various parameters have been defined such as fixation and denaturation of cytological preparations, concentration of complementary (3H)-cRNA and volume of buffer used for the hybridization reaction. When all these parameters are carefully controlled, a reproducibility of +/-10% can be obtained for the quantitative study of the system SV40-monkey kidney cells (CV-1). In this system, it is evident that the synthesis of viral DNA is not synchronized in confluent cells. Moreover, a proportion of 20 to 30% of cells are not labelled whatever the multiplicity of infection. In SV40-transformed cells, it was not possible to detect significantly the integrated genome due either to the small size of the genome or to the fact that the number of genome-equivalents integrated at the same place is too low to yield a radioactivitity superior to background level for long periods of exposure.

Abstract
The fate of polyoma form IDNA generated during replication was investigated in resting BALB-3T3 cells. The experiments showed that there was extensive re-entry of such molecules into replication. This process took place over a period of several hours and appeared to be random. Progeny form I molecules must, therefore, spend some time in a nonreplicating pool before reinitiating replication. We propose that two factors affect the fate of progeny form IDNA. (i) The rate of reinitiation of progeny molecules is determined by the capacity of the initiation machinery. (ii) The extent of re-entry is determined by the availability of maturation proteins which divert form I from replication.

Abstract
Brief labeling of cells infected with simian virus 40 with tritiated uridine resulted in the incorporation of part of the label into material that was soluble in 1 M NaCl and sensitive to KOH, with a buoyant density close to that of DNA. The properties of this material suggest that it represents single-stranded nascent molecules of messenger RNA of simian virus 40 hydrogen-bonded over a small portion of their length to viral DNA templates. The name "simian virus 40 transcriptional intermediate molecules" is suggested for these naturally occurring DNA.RNA hybrid molecules. The DNA in the hybrid seems to be in the form of replicative intermediate molecules.

Abstract
The relationship between replication of simian virus 40 (SV40) DNA and the various periods of the host-cell cycle was investigated in synchronized CV(1) cells. Cells synchronized through a double excess thymidine procedure were infected with SV40 at the beginning or the middle of S, or in G(2). The first viral progeny DNA molecules were in all instances detected approximately 20 h after release from the thymidine block, independent of the time of infection. The length of the early, prereplicative phase of the virus growth cycle therefore depended upon the period of the cell cycle at which the cells were infected. Infection with SV40 was also performed on cells obtained in early G(1) through selective detachment of cells in metaphase. As long as the cells were in G(1) at the time of infection, the first viral progeny DNA molecules were detected during the S period immediately following, whereas if infection took place once the cells had entered S, no progeny DNA molecule could be detected until the S period of the next cell cycle. These results suggest that the infected cell has to pass through a critical stage situated in late G(1) or early S before SV40 DNA replication can eventually be initiated.

Abstract
Growing subcloned CV1-cells were infected with simian virus 40, and the time course of virus formation was determined. When infected cells were fractionated into cytoplasmic and nuclear fractions, most of the progeny virus particles were recovered in the cytoplasmic extract and not in the nuclei. This result was independent of the technique used for the preparation of nuclei and of the time after infection at which the extracts were prepared. Leakage of the virions from the nucleus occurred during the course of cell fractionation, suggesting that the nuclear membrane of the infected cells is damaged. Virions were found to accumulate in a nonlinear fashion, at the time when the number of viral deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) molecules increases linearly with time after infection. This suggests that the size of the intracellular pool of capsid proteins increases constantly during the late phase of virus replication. Progeny viral DNA to become encapsidated is withdrawn at random from the pool of replicated DNA molecules.
