Popis: | Seventy-five percent of the amino acid sequence of simian virus 40 (SV40) large T antigen is identical to that of the large T antigen of the human papovavirus, BK virus (BKV). Cross-reactivity between BKV T antigen and monoclonal antibodies directed against SV40 T antigen was studied by immunofluorescence, an enzyme immunoassay, immunoprecipitation of radiolabeled extracts, and Western blotting. BKV T antigen was found to be recognized by two monoclonal antibodies, PAb 416 and 430, which react with two distinct sites toward the amino terminus of SV40 large T antigen. These two sites may correspond to two hydrophilic regions of shared amino acid sequence which exist toward the amino termini of the T antigens. |
