Abstract excerpt
Cell cycle-dependent phosphorylation of simian virus 40 (SV40) large tumor antigen (T-ag) on threonine 124 is essential for the initiation of viral DNA replication. A T-ag molecule containing a Thr-->Ala substitution at this position (T124A) was previously shown to bind to the SV40 core origin but to be defective in DNA unwinding and initiation of DNA replication. However, exactly what step in the initiation...
