Abstract
The early region E1b of adenovirus type 2 (Ad2) codes for two major tumor antigens of 53 and 19 kilodaltons (kd). The adenovirus lp+ locus maps within the 19-kd tumor antigen-coding region (G. Chinnadurai, Cell 33:759-766, 1983). We have now constructed a large-plaque deletion mutant (dl250) of Ad2 that has a specific lesion in the 19-kd tumor antigen-coding region. In contrast to most other Ad2 lp mutants (G. Chinnadurai, Cell 33:759-766, 1983), mutant dl250 is cytocidal (cyt) on infected KB cells, causing extensive cellular destruction. Cells infected with Ad2 wt or most of these other Ad2 lp mutants are rounded and aggregated without cell lysis (cyt+). The cyt phenotype of dl250 resembles the cyt mutants of highly oncogenic Ad12, isolated by Takemori et al. (Virology 36:575-586, 1968). By intertypic complementation analysis, we showed that the Ad12 cyt mutants indeed map within the 19-kd tumor antigen-coding region. The transforming potential of dl250 was assayed on an established rat embryo fibroblast cell line, CREF, and on primary rat embryo fibroblasts and baby rat kidney cells. On all these cells, dl250 induced transformation at greatly reduced frequency compared with wt. The cells transformed by this mutant are defective in anchorage-independent growth on soft agar. Our results suggest that the 19-kd tumor antigen (in conjunction with E1a tumor antigens) may play an important role in the maintenance of cell transformation. Since we have mapped the low-oncogenic or nononcogenic Ad12 cyt mutants within the 19-kd tumor antigen-coding region, our results further indicate that the 19-kd tumor antigen also directly or indirectly plays an important role in tumorigenesis of Ad12. Our results show that the cyt+ locus is an allele of the lp+ locus and that the cyt phenotype may be the result of mutations in specific domains of the 19-kd tumor antigen.
