Abstract:
:Bovine Papilloma Virus (BPV-1) establishes itself as a multicopy nuclear plasmid in somatic mammalian cells in culture. We report here that two discontinuous regions within the viral genome can independently support extrachromosomal replication of the Tn5 neomycinr gene in cells that provide viral factors in trans. The viral plasmid maintenance sequences (PMS) act in cis and will integrate along with the marker gene in cell lines that do not provide BPV-1 gene products. PMS-1 is localized within a 521 bp region upstream of the BPV-1 early transcription unit; PMS-2 has been localized to a 140 bp region within the putative reading frame for the E1 protein of the viral genome. Recombinant plasmids carrying either of the PMS elements are unrearranged and stably maintained at a constant copy number supernumerary to the resident BPV-1 genomes even in the absence of selective pressure. Specific deletion mutants within the viral genome show that BPV-1 gene products required for morphological transformation are dispensable for plasmid maintenance. In mouse cells cotransformed with such deletion derivatives and an unlinked marker gene (neomycinr or Tk), the marker genes integrate into the host genome while the BPV molecules are nonselectively carried as nuclear plasmids. This result implies that the BPV-1 genome must have signals that specifically preclude integration in the presence of transacting factors.
