A replicative form of the DNA of minute virus of mice

Abstract: The growth of minute virus of mice (MVM) in L cells was followed by plaque assay of both cell-associated and free virus at intervals up to 36 h after infection. The major production of progeny virus occurred after incubation for 27 h and most of the virus remained cell-associated. L cells infected with MVM were pulse-labeled with 3H-thymidine for 6 h preceding induction of lysis with sodium dodecylsulfate. Two new species of DNA remained in the supernatant fractions from lysates after selective precipitation b… Show more

“…The specific S phase dependence of viral DNA synthesis suggests that a homology between viral DNA and host cell DNA may exist and results in a coordination of the initiation of viral DNA synthesis with certain replicons of the host cell. During the preparation of this manuscript a report appeared describing the isolation of RF DNA for MVM virus and evidence for homology between MVM and L-cell DNA (6). Experiments are in progress to determine if H-1 DNA has homology to late replicating hamster embryo DNA.…”

“…Following infection, the ss viral DNA is converted to a linear, double-stranded (ds) replicative form (RF) DNA molecule (7)(8)(9)(10) by the host replicative machinery, presumably using the 3' hairpin terminus as a primer-template. This duplex RF DNA is then further replicated and acts as template for the synthesis of the viral DNA strand from a proposed unique replication origin at the 3' end of the complementary strand (11,12).…”

“…The replication model described above, which explains these data on MVL51 replication, is similar to the replication systems of other single-stranded bacteriophage (8,10) and animal viruses (1). The fact that these diverse single-stranded DNA viruses (all with DNA molecular weights about 2 x 106) follow the same basic replication scheme must reflect the selective advantage of this replication mechanism; a slight modification to the general model has been found for two parvoviruses (the adenoassociated satellite virus and densonucleosis virus) which contain separately encapsidated complementary single DNA strands (reviewed by Tinsley and Longworth,ref.…”

“…The progeny DNA is assembled into mature 4X174 particles, which are then released from the infected cell. The same general model seems to apply to the replication of the single-stranded DNA filamentous bacteriophage (8) and to a single-stranded DNA parvovirus (1).…”
