| Abstract | Polyoma virus (Py) transformation of rat cells requires integration of viral genomes into the host DNA, which generally occurs in a partial or full head-to-tail tandem arrangement. The instability of this structure was previously demonstrated by the high rate of loss of integrated Py genomes in the presence of viral large tumor (T) antigen. We now show that integrated Py DNA sequences can also undergo amplification. We studied two rat cell lines transformed by the ts-a Py mutant, which codes for a thermolabile large T antigen. In a derivative of the ts-a H6A cell line, we have observed loss of full-length Py DNA molecules from the integrated tandem ('curing'), accompanied by the creation of new tandem repeats of two segments of viral DNA corresponding to 38% and 10% of the viral genome, each containing the origin of DNA replication. In the ts-a H3A cell line, which contains an integrated partial tandem of about 1.3 viral genomes with three distinct deletions, propagation at 33 degrees C resulted in the generation of full tandem repeats of a 94% Py DNA 'unit' (including two 3% deletions), an 85% 'unit' (including a 3% and the 12% deletion), or both. Amplification of integrated viral DNA was not observed in cells propagated at 39.5 degrees C, the nonpermissive temperature for large T antigen function. Amplification of integrated Py DNA sequences thus requires an active large T antigen and can generate a full tandem of integrated viral DNA molecules long after the initial integration event. |

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.
