The transforming potential and oncogenicity of a simian virus 40 (SV40) mutant affecting T-antigen (T-ag), SV40(cT)-3, was examined in an effort to dissect T-ag functions in transformation. SV40(cT)-3 has a point mutation at nucleotide 4434 that abolishes the transport of T-ag to the nucleus but does not affect its association with the cell surface. Transfection-transformation assays were performed with primary cells and established cell lines of mouse and rat origin. The efficiency of transformation for established cell lines by SV40(cT)-3 was comparable to that of wild-type SV40, indicating that transformation of established cell lines can occur in the absence of detectable amounts of nuclear T-ag. Transformation of primary mouse embryo fibroblasts by SV40(cT)-3 was markedly influenced by culture conditions; the relative transforming frequency was dramatically reduced in assays involving focus formation in low serum concentrations or anchorage-independent growth. Immunofluorescence tests revealed that the transformed mouse embryo fibroblasts partially transport the mutant cT-ag to the cell nucleus. Transformed cell lines induced by SV40(cT)-3 did not differ in growth properties from wild-type transformants. SV40(cT)-3 was completely defective for the transformation of primary baby rat kidney cells, a primary cell type unable to transport the mutant T-ag to the nucleus. The intracellular localization of cellular protein p53 was found to mimic T-ag distribution in all the transformants analyzed. The mutant virus was weakly oncogenic in vivo: the induction of tumors in newborn hamsters by SV40(cT)-3 was reduced in incidence and delayed in appearance in comparison to wild-type SV40. These observations suggest that cellular transformation is regulated by both nuclear and surface-associated forms of SV40 T-ag.

The simian virus 40 (SV40) (cT)-3 mutant [SV40(cT)-3], which is defective in nuclear transport of T antigen, was utilized to determine whether cellular DNA synthesis can be stimulated by SV40 in the absence of detectable nuclear T antigen. Cellular DNA synthesis was examined in the temperature-sensitive cell cycle mutants, BHK ts13 and BHK tsAF8, after microinjection of quiescent cells with plasmid DNA containing cloned copies of wild-type SV40 or SV40(cT)-3. The efficiency of induction of cellular DNA synthesis was identical for both wild-type SV40 and SV40(cT)-3 in both cell lines. The results suggest that cell surface-associated T antigen, either alone or possibly in combination with minimal amounts of nuclear T antigen below our limit of detection, is able to stimulate cellular DNA synthesis.

The thermolabile large T antigen, encoded by the simian virus 40 early-region mutant tsA58, was used to establish clonal cell lines derived from rat embryo fibroblasts. These cell lines grew continuously at the permissive temperature but upon shift-up to the nonpermissive temperature showed rapidly arrested growth. The growth arrest occurred in either the G1 or G2 phase of the cell cycle. After growth arrest, the cells remained metabolically active as assayed by general protein synthesis and the ability to exclude trypan blue. The inability of these cell lines to divide at the nonpermissive temperature was not readily complemented by the exogenous introduction of other nuclear oncogenes. This finding suggests that either these genes establish cells via different pathways or that immortalization by one oncogene results in a finely balanced cellular state which cannot be adequately complemented by another establishment gene.
