Quantitative analysis of gene suppression in integrated retrovirus vectors.

Abstract:

:Previously, we described a retrovirus vector that contained two genes: a 5' gene under transcriptional control of the viral long terminal repeat and a 3' gene under transcriptional control of the herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase promoter. By using a biological assay, we found that expression of the 5' gene is suppressed when there was selection for the 3' gene and expression of the 3' gene is suppressed when there is selection for the 5' gene (M. Emerman and H. M. Temin, Cell 39:459-467, 1984). In the present study, we replaced the thymidine kinase promoter with stronger promoters, and we measured expression of the genes in the retrovirus vectors by enzyme activity and RNA analysis. We found that all of the vectors displayed gene suppression when analyzed biochemically, although not when analyzed biologically. The suppressed genes produced about 10 to 50% as much product as when they were selected. The amount of suppression depended on whether the suppressed gene was 5' or 3' to the selected gene and from which promoter the suppressed gene was transcribed. The amount of suppression correlated with a decrease in the amount of steady-state RNA transcribed from the suppressed gene's promoter.
