Adeno-associated virus helper activity of adenovirus DNA binding protein.

Abstract

The requirement for the adenovirus (Ad) single-stranded DNA binding protein (DBP) in the expression of adeno-associated virus (AAV) proteins was studied by specific immunofluorescent staining of infected cells and in vitro translation of RNA from infected cells. The Ad5 mutant ts125, which carries a mutation in the DBP gene, helped AAV as efficiently as the Ad5 wild type (WT) did at both the permissive (32 degrees C) and nonpermissive (40.5 degrees C) temperatures in HeLa and KB cells. Furthermore, at 40.5 degrees C ts125 was as efficient as Ad5WT was in inducing the expression of AAV proteins in a line of Detroit 6 cells which is latently infected with AAV. However, little if any AAV protein was synthesized when coinfections were carried out with Ad5WT in CV-C cells, a monkey cell line that is highly restrictive for human Ad replication unless the cells are also infected with simian virus 40. On the other hand, AAV protein was efficiently produced in CV-C cells in coinfections with the Ad5 mutant hr404, whose growth is unrestricted in CV-C cells and whose mutation also maps in the DBP gene. Finally, preparations of cytoplasmic RNA extracted from CV-C cells infected with AAV and Ad5WT or from CV-C cells infected with AAV, Ad5WT, and simian virus 40 were each capable of directing the in vitro synthesis of abundant amounts of AAV proteins in a rabbit reticulocyte lysate system. These results indicate that the abnormal DBP of ts125 still retains its helper function for AAV replication, but that the molecular feature of the DBP which relates to the monkey cell host range restriction of Ad's may also account for the observed block to AAV protein translation in CV-C cells.
