Abstract
Proteins related to simian virus 40 (SV40) T antigen uere isolated from cells infected with adenovirus 2/SV40 hybrids Ad2+D2 and Ad2+ND1 dp2 as well as from a line of human cells (SV80) transformed by SV40. The 96,000- and 107,000-dalton proteins of SV80 and Ad2+D2, after injection into the cytoplasm of cultured cells, rapidly accumulate in the nuclei, where they remain antigenically reactive for at least 20 hr and trigger DNA synthesis in quiescent cells. By contrast, the 23,000-dalton protein coded by Ad2+ND1 dp2 does not stimulate cellular DNA synthesis. However, all three purified proteins are able to provide helper function for the growth of adenovirus 2 in monkey cells. Thus, purified SV40 T antigen and proteins that share sequences with it retain the ability to carry out at least two functions associated with the product of the A gene of SV40.
