All of the single E1A 1-80 mutants were assayed for the three parameters. Mutants not shown in the Table (E1A 1-80 11 A1a to 18 A1a and 23 A1a to 30 A1a) were wild type in their ability to repress transcription in vitro and in vivo and to interfere with TBP-TATA complex formation. ++++ indicates wild-type activity (80 to 100%); − is defined as a completely mutant phenotype (greater-than-five-fold reduction in activity). Intermediate values are indicated by ±, +, ++, and +++. The percentages of wild-type activity for repression in vitro and in vivo are presented in Fig. 4.
