Simian virus 40 (SV40) infection of quiescent monkey kidney cells stimulates two successive rounds of cellular DNA synthesis without an intervening mitosis. This uncoupling of S phase and mitosis indicates that SV40 modulates pathways regulating the G2-to-M phase transition. To examine the integrity of mitotic initiation pathways in infected cells that have bypassed mitosis, SV40-infected CV-1 cells were treated with okadaic acid (OA), a known inducer of premature mitosis in other cell types. OA treatment triggered the appearance of the mitotic marker MPM-2 in SV40-infected CV-1 cells progressing through either the first (diploid) or second (tetraploid) S phases. These results demonstrate that a subset of mitotic pathways are intact but inactive in SV40-infected cells that have bypassed mitosis and initiated tetraploid S phase.
猿猴病毒40(SV40)感染静止的猴肾细胞会刺激两轮连续的细胞DNA合成,且中间没有有丝分裂过程。S期和有丝分裂的这种解偶联表明SV40调节了调控G2期到M期转换的途径。为了检查绕过有丝分裂的感染细胞中有丝分裂起始途径的完整性,用冈田酸(OA)处理了被SV40感染的CV-1细胞,OA是其他细胞类型中已知的早熟有丝分裂诱导剂。OA处理在经历第一个(二倍体)或第二个(四倍体)S期的被SV40感染的CV-1细胞中触发了有丝分裂标记MPM-2的出现。这些结果表明,在绕过有丝分裂并启动四倍体S期的被SV40感染的细胞中,有丝分裂途径的一个子集是完整的但处于非活性状态。
