Abstract

We located the origin of DNA replication of African green monkey B-lymphotropic papovavirus DNA by analyzing pulse-labeled form I DNA. With the replication origin used as a reference point, the B-lymphotropic papovavirus genome was aligned with the genomes of simian virus 40 and BK virus from DNA homology between specific fragments hybridized under low-stringency conditions. From the results of these experiments, it was possible to deduce the correlation between the physical and functional maps of the B-lymphotropic papovavirus genome.
