Adenovirus type 12-induced fragility of the human RNU2 locus requires U2 small nuclear RNA transcriptional regulatory elements.
Infection of human cells with oncogenic adenovirus type 12 (Ad12) induces four specific chromosome fragile sites. Remarkably, three of these sites appear to colocalize with tandem arrays of genes encoding small, abundant, ubiquitously expressed structural RNAs--the RNU1 locus encoding U1 small nuclear RNA (snRNA), the RNU2 locus encoding U2 snRNA, and the RN5S locus encoding 5S rRNA. Recently, ...
متن کاملMetaphase fragility of the human RNU1 and RNU2 loci is induced by actinomycin D through a p53-dependent pathway.
Infection of human cells with adenovirus 12 (Ad12), but not Ad2 or 5, induces four specific sites of metaphase chromosome fragility: the U1 small nuclear RNA (snRNA) genes (the RNU1 locus), the U2 snRNA genes (RNU2), the U1 snRNA pseudogenes (PSU1) and the 5S rRNA genes (RN5S). Significantly, each of these sites corresponds to a multigene family encoding a small, abundant structural RNA. We and...
متن کاملComplementation of human adenovirus type 5 ts mutants by human adenovirus type 12.
Temperature-sensitive mutants of type 5 adenovirus belonging to eight complementation groups were complemented in mixed infection by type 12 adenovirus, whereas mutants of 7 other groups were not enhanced. In some crosses, phenotypic mixing took place. No evidence of recombination between type 5 ts mutants and type 12 was found.
متن کاملStructure and function of adenovirus type 12 defective virions.
Purified human adenovirus type 12 preparations contain defective virions with a lighter density. These defective virions were isolated, and their biological functions and DNA were characterized. They can induce early and late antigens in infected cells and tumors in newborn hamsters with similar efficiency as complete virions. The majority of the DNA molecules from light virions contain deletio...
متن کاملMitochondrial DNA from hamster tumors induced by adenovirus type 12.
1. Mitochondria isolated from hamster tumors induced by adenovirus type 12 poeed circular DNA fibers. 2. The mean value of the length of the highest frequency group of the circular DNA molecules was 4.92±0.38 μ. 3. Catenated dimer DNA molecules and small (le than 2 μ in length) circular DNA molecules were observed. ∗PMID: 4258713 [PubMed indexed for MEDLINE] Copyright c ©OKAYAMA UNIVERSITY MEDI...
