Abstract

The amounts of simian virus 40 structural polypeptides Vp1, Vp2, and Vp3 in different subcellular fractions at various times after lytic infection were determined by a quantitative immunoblotting procedure. Simian virus 40-infected cells were lysed with a buffer containing Nonidet P-40 to yield a soluble fraction. The Nonidet P-40-insoluble fraction was further fractionated in the presence of deoxycholate and Tween 40 to yield a soluble fraction (cytoskeletal) and an insoluble fraction (Nuc), which is primarily cell nuclei. At 33 h postinfection, the majority of viral structural proteins was found in the cell nucleus, whereas, at 48 to 65 h postinfection, Vp1 was distributed evenly among all cell fractions and Vp2 and Vp3 were found predominantly in the cytoskeletal and Nuc fractions. Thus, not all of the viral polypeptides synthesized in the cytoplasm migrated into the cell nucleus. Throughout infection, the molar ratio (Vp3/Vp2) was rather constant in all subcellular fractions, indicating that the synthesis or processing or both of Vp2 and Vp3 are coordinately regulated. The molar ratio of Vp1/(Vp2 + Vp3) varied among the fractions. The Vp1/(Vp2 + Vp3) molar ratio in the soluble fraction varied during the course of infection; however, constant ratios were maintained in the cytoskeletal and Nuc fractions. Thus, the mechanism which controls the movement of Vp1 to different compartments of the cell appears to be different from that of Vp2 and Vp3. The Vp1/(Vp2 + Vp3) value in the Nuc fraction was similar to the ratio found in virus particles. The constant molar distribution of Vp1, Vp2, and Vp3 in the Nuc fraction throughout infection suggests that there is a specific mechanism which regulates the transport of viral structural proteins. These results support the hypothesis that the structural proteins of simian virus 40 are transported into the cell nucleus in precise proportions.
