| Abstract | Polyoma virus host range transforming (hr-t) mutants are blocked in virion assembly. In normal 3T3 cells, a nonpermissive host, these mutants synthesize 30-40% as much viral DNA and 80-100% as much capsid proteins as does wild-type virus and yet produce only 1-2% as much infectious virus. Intermediates in virion assembly have been followed by [3H]thymidine incorporation. hr-t mutants synthesize 95S replicating minichromosomes, which accumulate as 75S forms. However, the latter fail to undergo efficient transition to 240S virion structures. This block in encapsidation is overcome in permissive hosts such as primary baby mouse kidney (BMK) epithelial cells. The block in assembly of 240S particles is accompanied by a failure to induce a series of acidic isoelectric forms of the major capsid protein, VP1. Multiple species of post-translationally modified VP1 are seen by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis in wild-type virus-infected cells. These acidic VP1 subspecies are decreased 6- to 10-fold in hr-t mutant-infected 3T3 cells but are produced in normal amounts when the same mutants infect BMK cells. When 3T3 cells are coinfected with hr-t mutant and wild-type viruses, normal amounts of the VP1 subspecies are present, and hr-t mutant viral DNA is efficiently packaged into virions. These studies demonstrate an important role of the hr-t gene of polyoma virus in virus assembly. Specifically, we propose that VP1 is a target for hr-t gene-controlled modification and that modified forms of VP1 are essential for encapsidation of viral minichromosomes. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
