Abstract
We have analyzed by immunofluorescence microscopy and by biochemical cell fractionation the subcellular distribution of the adenovirus type 2 72K DNA binding protein (DBP) during the course of infection in HeLa cells. Early in infection, the 72K DBP was strictly localized in the cell nucleus. However, as infection progressed, the 72K DBP was additionally found in other subcellular fractions, notably in association with the cytoskeletal framework of the plasma membrane, the plasma membrane lamina. Pulse-chase experiments demonstrated that this association was specific. Control experiments excluded the possibility of an artificial redistribution of the 72K DBP during cell fractionation. Our data, therefore, demonstrate that a significant portion of the 72K DBP during late times of infection associates specifically with the cytoskeletal framework of plasma membranes of infected cells.

Abstract
Evidence has been obtained for the glycosylation of simian virus 40 (SV40) T antigen in SV40-infected TC7 cells. Both [3H]mannose and [3H]glucosamine are incorporated into T antigen in cells grown and labeled in medium containing fructose instead of glucose. In addition, T antigen is visualized by a carbohydrate stain specific for mannose and/or glucose residues. Finally, lectin binding studies suggest that T antigen contains galactose and/or galactosamine, since T antigen is specifically eluted from soybean lectin by 0.2 M galactose. When gel-purified, [3H]glucosamine-labeled T antigen is subjected to tryptic peptide mapping, label is found in only one peptide, thought to correspond to the methionine-containing peptide extending from Asn-653 to Arg-691, near the carboxy-terminal end of T antigen. Insensitivity to tunicamycin and the localization of the glycosylation site in the carboxy-terminus of T antigen, and not at Asn-153, suggest that T antigen is not N-glycosylated. Cell fractionation studies show that [3H]glucosamine-labeled T antigen is preferentially associated with the nuclear matrix of SV40-infected TC7 cells.

Abstract
To sort out possible influences of protein sequences and fatty acid acylation on the plasma membrane association of simian virus 40 large T-antigen, we have analyzed the membrane interactions of carboxy-terminal fragments of large T-antigen, encoded by the adenovirus type 2 (Ad2+)-simian virus 40 hybrid viruses Ad2+ND1 and Ad2+ND2. The 28,000 (28K)-molecular-weight protein of Ad2+ND1 as well as the 42K and 56K proteins of Ad2+ND2 associate preferentially with membranous structures and were found in association with the membrane system of the endoplasmic reticulum and with plasma membranes. Neither the endoplasmic reticulum membrane- nor the plasma membrane-associated 28K protein of Ad2+ND1 is fatty acid acylated. We, therefore, conclude that fatty acid acylation is not necessary for membrane association of this protein and suggest that an amino acid sequence in this protein is responsible for its membrane interaction. In contrast, the 42K and 56K proteins of Ad2+ND2 in plasma membrane fractions contain fatty acid. However, the interaction of these proteins with the plasma membrane differs from that of the 28K protein of Ad2+ND1: whereas the 28K protein of Ad2+ND1 interacts stably with Nonidet P-40-soluble constituents of the plasma membrane, the 42K and 56K proteins of Ad2+ND2 are tightly bound to the Nonidet P-40-insoluble plasma membrane lamina. Thus, an amino acid sequence in the amino-terminal region of the 28K protein confers membrane affinity to these proteins, whereas a region between the amino-terminal end of the 42K protein of Ad2+ND2 and the amino-terminal end of the 28K protein of Ad2+ND1 contains a reactive site for fatty acid acylation. This posttranslational modification correlates with the stable association of the 42K and 56K proteins with the plasma membrane lamina. We suggest that the same sequences also mediate the proper plasma membrane association of large T-antigen in simian virus 40-transformed cells.

Abstract
Analyses of the different structural systems of the nucleus and the proteins associated with them pose many problems. Because these systems are largely overlapping, in situ localization studies that preserve the in vivo location of proteins and cellular structures often are not satisfactory. In contrast, biochemical cell fractionation may provide artifactual results due to cross-contamination of extracts and structures. To overcome these problems, we have developed a method that combines biochemical cell fractionation and in situ localization and leads to the preparation of a residual cellular skeleton (nuclear matrix and cytoskeletal elements) from cultured cells. This method's main feature is that cell fractionation is performed in situ. Therefore, structures not solubilized in a particular extraction step remain attached to the substrate and retain their morphology. Before and after each extraction step they can be analyzed for the presence and location of the protein under study by using immunological or cytochemical techniques. Thereby the in vivo origin of a protein solubilized in a particular extraction step is determined. The solubilized protein then may be further characterized biochemically. In addition, to allow analyses of proteins associated with the residual cellular skeleton, we have developed conditions for its solubilization that do not interfere with enzymatic and immunological studies.

Abstract
A small fraction of the 94,000-molecular-weight multifunctional large T-antigen of simian virus 40 was associated with the nuclear protein matrix derived from simian virus 40-transformed mouse cells. The interaction between this fraction of T-antigen and the matrix was largely or entirely independent of nuclear DNA. Similar amounts of T-antigen were retained by the nuclei of transformed and revertant cell lines. A 100,000-molecular-weight variant of T-antigen, which has been found to correlate specifically with anchorage-independent growth, was present in the nuclear protein matrix of a transformed cell line. A T-antigen-containing revertant selected for the reacquisition of a high serum requirement and an anchorage requirement for growth retained T-antigen in association with its matrix.

Abstract
Recent studies indicate that eukaryotic DNA is organized into supercoiled loop domains. These loops appear to be anchored at their bases to an insoluble nuclear skeleton or matrix. Most of the DNA in the loops can be released from the matrix by nuclease digestion; the residual DNA remaining with the nuclear matrix represents sequences at the base of the loops, and possibly other sequences which are intimately associated with the nuclear matrix for other reasons. Using a quantitative application of the Southern blotting technique, we have found this residual DNA from SV40 infected 3T3 cells to be enriched in SV40 sequences, indicating that they reside near matrix-DNA attachment points. An enrichment of 3-7 fold relative to total cellular DNA, was found in each of three different lines of SV40 infected 3T3 cells. Control experiments with globin genes showed no such enrichment in this residual matrix DNA. This sequence specificity suggests that the spatial organization of DNA sequences within loops may be related to the functionality of these sequences within the cell.

Abstract
Nuclear matrix prepared from mouse 3T6 cells lytically infected with polyoma virus retained significant amounts of the 100K T antigen and intact viral genomes. Bound T antigen was resistant to the extraction by high salt (2 M NaCl), detergent (1% Triton X-100) and exhaustive DNAase treatment. Only conditions sufficient to disrupt the integrity of the matrix itself solubilized the matrix T antigen. During the time period of 16-30 hr after infection, both the accumulation (in microgram) and the incorporation of 35S-methionine into T antigen increased steadily in cell extracts to a peak at 26 hr and then declined. In contrast, the amount of labeled T antigen retained by the matrix was relatively constant over the same time period. Matrix-bound T antigen was more highly phosphorylated and newly synthesized compared with the extractable T antigen. Viral DNA steadily accumulates in nuclei and on the matrix from 18 to 30 hr after infection. The fraction of viral DNA retained by the matrix was greatest early in infection (25% at 16 hr), declining to less than 10% by 24 hr. These data are consistent with the existence of a fixed (and limited) number of sites for T antigen (more highly phosphorylated) on the matrix and implicate the nuclear matrix as a site of viral DNA replication and possibly encapsidation.

Abstract
HeLa cells infected with the nondefective adenovirus type 2-simian virus 40 hybrid viruses Ad2+ND1 or Ad2+ND2 were analyzed for cell surface location of the SV40-specific hybrid virus proteins by indirect immunofluorescence microscopy. Two different batches of sera from SV40 tumor-bearing hamsters, serum from SV40 tumor-bearing mice, or two different antisera prepared against purified sodium dodecyl sulfate-denatured SV40 T-antigen, respectively, were used. All sera were shown to exhibit comparable T- and U-antibody titers and to specifically immunoprecipitate the SV40-specific proteins from cell extracts of Ad2+ND2-infected cells. Whereas analysis of living, hybrid virus-infected HeLa cells did not yield conclusive results, analysis of Formalin-fixed cells resulted in positive cell surface fluorescence with both Ad2+ND1- and Ad2+ND2-infected HeLa cells when antisera prepared against sodium dodecyl sulfate-denatured SV40 T-antigen were used as first antibody. In contrast, sera from SV40 tumor-bearing animals were not or only very weakly able to stain the surfaces of these cells. The fact that the tumor sera had comparable or even higher T- and U-antibody titers than the antisera against sodium dodecyl sulfate-denatured T-antigen but were not able to recognize SV40-specific proteins on the cell surface suggests that SV40 tumor-specific transplantation antigen may be an antigenic entity different from T- or U-antigen.

Abstract
Simian virus 40 (SV40)-transformed cells and cells infected by the nondefective adenovirus 2(Ad2)-SV40 hybrid viruses Ad2+ND1 and Ad2+ND2 were analyzed for SV40 T- and U-antigens, respectively, using individual hamster SV40 tumor sera or serum for which U-antibodies were removd by absorption. These studies showed that (i) T- and U-antigens can be defined by separate classes of antigenic determinants and (ii) the U-antigenic determinants in SV40-transformed cells and in hybrid virus-infected cells are similar. The apparent discrepancy in the subcellular location of U-antigen in SV40-transformed cells (nuclear location) and in hybrid virus-infected cells (perinuclear location) as determined by immunofluorescence staining of methanol/acetone-fixed cells could be resolved by treating hybrid virus-infected cells with a hypotonic KCl solution before fixation. Upon this treatment hybrid virus-infected cells also showed nuclear U-antigen staining. The possibility of an association of T- and U-antigens with different nuclear subfractions in SV40-transformed cells was investigated. Detergent-cleaned nuclei of SV40-transformed cells were fractionated into nuclear matrices and a DNase-treated, high-salt nuclear extract. Analysis of the nuclear matrices by immunofluorescence microscopy with T+U+ and T+U- hamster SV40 tumor serum revealed that U-antigen remained associated with the nuclear matrices, whereas T-antigen could not be detected in this nuclear subfraction. T-antigen, however, could be immunoprecipitated from nuclear extracts of the SV40-transformed cells.

Abstract
Recent studies on the eukaryotic nucleus have described the presence of a structural component termed the nuclear matrix, that appears to be involved in nucleic acid synthesis. This study will present evidence that the nuclear matrix of both the rat uterus and chick liver contains specific, high affinity, saturable estradiol binding sites.
