Abstract

An immunoprecipitation assay was established for simian virus 40 T-antigen-bound nucleoprotein complexes by means of precipitation with sera from hamsters bearing simian virus 40-induced tumors. About 80% of simian virus 40 replicating nucleoprotein complexes in various stages of replication were immunoprecipitated. In contrast, less than 21% of mature nucleoprotein complexes were immunoprecipitated. Pulse-chase experiments showed that T antigen was lost from most of the nucleoprotein complexes concurrently with completion of DNA replication. T antigen induced by dl-940, a mutant with a deletion in the region coding for small T antigen, was also associated with most of the replicating nucleoprotein complexes. Once bound with replicating nucleoprotein complexes at the permissive temperature, thermolabile T antigen induced by tsA900 remained associated with the complexes during elongation of the replicating DNA chain at the restrictive temperature. These results suggest that simian virus 40 T antigen (probably large T antigen) associates with nucleoprotein complexes at or before initiation of DNA replication and that the majority of the T antigen dissociates from the nucleoprotein complexes simultaneously with completion of DNA replication.
