When DNA replication of simian virus 40 (SV40) is initiated on the replication origin, the regions containing the initiation sites of DNA primase, which participates in the transient RNA primer synthesis for formation of Okazaki fragments in the lagging strand, were chosen as the target sites of antisense RNA for studies of the inhibition of SV40 DNA replication. Four recombinant transcription vectors, pUC-PrI, pUC-PrII, pGEM-PrBS, and pGEM-PrSN, coding antisense RNA, were constructed. Four antisense RNAs (named as I, II, BS, and SN) having the size of 18, 19,58, and 123 nts, respectively, were made from the transcription vectors by in vitro transcription. And then, antisense RNA in the concentration of 2${\mu}m$ were added to COS cells transfected with pATSV-W which is a recombinant plasmid containing the SV40 origin of replication. The inhibitory extent of DNA replication was measured by DpnI resistance and was confirmed by measurement of transient RNA primer synthesis. The result shows that six combinations of antisense RNA (I, II, BS, SN, I+SN, and BS+SN) lead to the inhibition of SV40 DNA replication by up to 85%.

Bacteriophage M13 DNAs carrying the wild type or base substituted SV40 DNA replication origins were used for replication assay. In vivo and in vitro assay with African green monkey cell line COS-1 showed that the replication of M13-SV40 recombinant DNAs was restricted like a pBR322 SV40 recombinant DNA(Lusky and Botchan, 1981). Furthermore, recombinant phage DNAs isolated from the transfected siminan cells subsequently show a reduced ability to retransform E. coli. But pATSV-W(Kim et al., 1988) was replicated in COS-1 cells normally. We think that a poison sequence may exist on bacteriophage M13 DNA like pBR322.

An expression vector in a mammalian cell was constructed using the origin of replication (OR) and the promoters of SV40. The plasmid pSVOE was constructed by inserting SV40 DNA fragment (1, 118bp) containing SV40 OR and promoters into pBR322-1, and then a multiple cloning sequence was inserted at the immediate downstream of the late promoter of SV40 in the pSVOE vector. The plasmid was named pSVML. As a selection marker, thymidine kinase gene of herpes simplex virus with its promoter was inserted into EcoRI site of pSVML and the recombinant was named pSVML-TKp. To test the expression capacity of foreigen gene inserted at the multiple cloning site of pSVML, the thymidine kinase gene without its own promoter was inserted at the BamHI site of pSVML. The recombinant was named pSVML-TK. These plasmids, pSVML-TKp and pSVML-TK, were transfected into COS cells with calcium phosphate precipitation method. The thymidine kinase activity was significantly increased in both transfected cells.

The combination of Simian Virus40 (SV40)'s large T antigen with its replication origin is commonly used in molecular studies to enhance the expression of heterogeneous genes through multiplying the plasmid copy number. There are no reports related to the impact of the SV40 T antigen on plant, multiple fissional, cell-type. This study explores the response of two multiple-fission microalgal cells, Scenedesmus quadricauda and Chlorella vulgaris, to the expression of the T-antigen, with aim of applying SV40 T-antigen to increase the expression efficiency of foreign genes in the two species. Different levels of low-expression have been constructed to control the expression of SV40 T antigen using three heterogenous promoters (NOS, CaMV35S, and CMV). Chlorella cultures showed slowdown in the growth rate for samples harboring the T antigen under the control of CaMV35S and CMV promoters, unlike Scenedesmus cultures which showed no significant difference between samples and could have silenced the expression.

한국형 B형 간염바이러스(HBV) DNA의 표면항원 유전자를 포유동물 세포에서 발현시켜 항원의 검출과 유전자의 분자유전학적인 연구를 하기 위하여 pre-surface antigen 지역과 표면항원 유전자 그리고 poly(A) addition site가 포함된 DNA 조각을 simian virus 40(SV 40)의 DNA 복제 원점과 promoter가 포함된 유전자 운반체에 재조함 시켰다. 우선, HBV DNA가 들어있는 pHBV 107을 Bam HI으로 부분절단한뒤 self-ligation시켜 두 HBV DNA가 같은 방향으로 들어간 pHBVD 107을 만들었다. 이 plasmid를 Bgl II로 절단하였을때 pre-surface지역과 표면항원 유전자 그리고 poly(A) addition site가 함께 포함된 2.7 kb의 insert DNA 조각을 얻었다. 유전자 운반체로는 포유동물세포에서 복제할 수 있도록 하기 위하여 SV40의 DNA 복제 원점부위와 72 bp repeats(enhancer)가 포함된 pSVOE를 만든다음 이 vector의 Pvu II 절단자리에 Bam HI linker를 붙여 insert DNA가 vector의 SV40 late promoter지역 가까이에 들어갈 수 있도록 변형시킨 pSVOB를 만들었다. 이상과 같이 만들어진 pre-surface 지역-표면항원유전자-poly(A)-addition site가 포함된 2.7 kb DNA 절편을 pSVOB promoter 뒤의 Bam HI site에 삽입하여 재조합된 plasmid pSVBS를 얻었다. 예비실험으로 pSVBS를 T-antigen이 생산되는 COS cell에 이주시켰더니 $HB_sAg$가 발현됨을 보았다.
