The growth of simian virus 40 (SV40) host range/adenovirus helper function mutants in an African green monkey cell line that constitutively expresses the SV40 agnoprotein.

Abstract excerpt

The simian virus 40 T-antigen carboxy-terminal mutants, dlA2459 and dlA2475, are cell line and temperature dependent for growth and plaque formation in monkey kidney cells. Although these mutants did form plaques on BSC-1 cells at 37 degrees C, they were about fivefold less efficient for plaque formation than wild-type simian virus 40. These mutants did not grow in CV-1 cells and did not synthesize agnoprotein in...
