| quantitation of bovine papilloma viral dna in viral-induced tumors. | bovine papilloma virus (bpv) dna was labeled in vitro under conditions of repair synthesis and subsequently used as a "probe" in dna-dna reassociation studies to detect bpv-specific dna sequences in a viral-induced calf meningioma and hamster fibroma. in vitro labeled bpv dna had denaturation characteristics expected for duplex dna and denatured dna reassociated with apparent second-order kinetics. analysis of in vitro labeled bpv dna reassociation rates in the presence of excess tumor dna revea ... | 1976 | 176447 |
| precipitin response of cattle to commercial wart vaccine. | fifty young bulls were given commercial wart vaccine upon their arrival at a bull stud establishment. the bulls were given 2 additional vaccinations 2 and 24 weeks later. the precipitin antibody response of these bulls to bovine papilloma virus was monitored. antibody levels increased significantly, particularly after the 3rd vaccination was given at 24 weeks, but decreased markedly within 20 weeks after the last vaccination was given. these results demonstrated that formalin-inactivated bovine ... | 1976 | 178253 |
| chromatin-like structures obtained after alkaline disruption of bovine and human papillomaviruses. | four low-molecular-weight polypeptides migrating like h2a, h2b, h3, and h4 calf liver histones were detected by sodium dodecyl sulfate-acrylamide gel electrophoresis of highly purified preparations of bovine papillomavirus (bpv) and human papillomavirus (hpv). complexes of these polypeptides and viral dna were isolated by agarose-gel filtration of the alkaline disruption products of both viruses. when observed under the electron microscope, these complexes appeared as circular structures compose ... | 1977 | 191643 |
| bovine papilloma virus: presence of virus-specific dna sequences in naturally occurring equine tumors. | four of five spontaneous benign equine connective tissue tumors of unknown etiology and a bovine papilloma virus (bpv)-induced equine tumor contained bpv-specific dna sequences as determined by dna-dna hybridization of dna from tumors with bpv dna labeled in vitro. analysis of the kinetics of reassociation indicated that 20-75% of the bpv genome was present in the various tumors. the number of partial bpv genome equivalents ranged from 60 to 500 copies per diploid quantity of cellular dna. therm ... | 1977 | 191813 |
| the occurrence of human wart-virus antibodies in dogs, pigs and cattle. | using the immunodiffusion method, antibodies against human wart-virus were detected in dog, pig and cattle sera but not in horse and reindeer sera. antibodies were found in 25 percent (28/114) of the dog sera, the prevalence of antibodies being fairly similar to that in children of the same age. by electron microscopy the antibodies in dog sera were shown to attach to and precipitate the human wart-virus particles, and in immunodiffusion the precipitation lines of human and dog sera were shown t ... | 1978 | 210743 |

| common membrane neoantigens on bovine papilloma virus-induced fibroma cells from cattle and horses. | cultured cells from bovine papilloma virus (bpv)-induced fibroblastic tumors and normal dermis of cattle, horses, and hamsters were examined for cell membrane or internal neoantigens, using the indirect immunofluorescence technique. sera from cattle and horses bearing bpv-induced fibromas cross reacted with cell membranes of tumor, but not with normal dermal cells of both species. the reaction could be blocked with homologous, but not heterologous, serum of these 2 species. immunofluorescence wa ... | 1978 | 213996 |
| hybridization of bovine papilloma virus type 1 and type 2 dna to dna from virus-induced hamster tumors and naturally occurring equine tumors. | dnas from bovine papilloma virus(bpv)-induced hamster tumors and from equine connective tissue tumors of unknown etiology were examined for bpv dna sequences by molecular hybridization. dna from two distinct classes of bpv (type 1 and type 2) was labeled in vitro and used as probes. analysis of dna-dna reassociation kinetics indicated that both virus types were capable of tumor induction in the hamster. dna isolated from 6 of 7 equine tumors accelerated the reassociation of the bpv dna probes. b ... | 1979 | 218902 |
| seroepidemiologic studies of bovine papillomavirus infections. | bovine and human sera were analyzed for the presence of antibodies against bovine papillomavirus types 1 and 2 (bpv 1 and 2) and human papillomavirus type 1 (hpv 1) in a solid-phase radioimmunoassay. human sera did not react with bpv antigens, and bovine sera showed no evidence of antibodies against hpv 1. in contrast, 19% of all bovine sera tested reacted with bpv 1 and 2 antigens, and 35% of human sera revealed antibodies against hpv 1. no serologic evidence was obtained for heterologous infec ... | 1979 | 220453 |

| in vitro transformation by bovine papilloma virus. | this paper reports the development of a quantal transformation assay for bovine papillome virus. support for its specificity to fibropapilloma derived bovine papilloma virus comes from (i) the absence of transformation associated changes following inoculations of normal bovine skin, bovine teat papilloma, bovine teat focal epithelial hyperplasia lesion and canine papilloma derived suspensions; (2) in vitro transformation occurs when cscl purified fibropapilloma-derived bpv is used; (3) in vitro ... | 1979 | 225431 |
| physical maps of bovine papillomavirus type 1 and type 2 genomes. | physical maps of bovine papillomavirus type 1 and type 2 (bpv-1 and bpv-2) dna were constructed from analysis of the electrophoretic mobilities of restriction endonuclease cleavage fragments from dual digests. bpv-1 dna was sensitive to hind iii, hindiii, ecori, hpai, and bamhi, with all but hindii yielding single scissions. bpv-2 dna was resistant to ecori, and hindiii had one cleavage site whereas hpai, bamhi, and hindii yielded multiple fragments. of four bpv-1 isolates examined, dna from one ... | 1979 | 228086 |
| conserved polynucleotide sequences among the genomes of papillomaviruses. | the dnas of different members of the papillomavirus genus of papovaviruses were analyzed for nucleotide sequence homology. under standard hybridization conditions (tm - 28 degrees c), no homology was detectable among the genomes of human papillomavirus type 1 (hpv-1), bovine papillomavirus type 2 (bpv-2), or cottontail rabbit (shope) papillomavirus (crpv). however, under less stringent conditions (i.e., tm - 43 degrees c), stable hybrids were formed between radiolabeled dnas of crpv, bpv-1, or b ... | 1979 | 232171 |
| experimental transmission of bovine papilloma virus (bpv) extracted from morphologically distinct teat and cutaneous lesions and the effects of inoculation of bpv transformed fetal bovine cells. | bovine papilloma virus (bpv) was extracted from five cattle each affected with only one of five morphologically distinct lesion types. when inoculated into experimental calves either by scarification or intradermal injection, the bpv extracts produced lesions macroscopically and microscopically similar to those from which individual extracts were made. fetal bovine cells, transformed in vitro with bpv, failed to produce fibromas, fibropapillomas or papillomas when inoculated into experimental ca ... | 1979 | 233276 |

| equine connective tissue tumors contain unintegrated bovine papilloma virus dna. | bovine papilloma virus (bpv) appears to be the etiological agent of common equine connective tissue tumors. we investigated the physical state of the viral dna within such tumors and found no indication for integration into the host genome. the bpv genomes were present as free circular episomes. two equine sarcoids were shown to contain multiple copies of free circular bpv type 1 (bpv-1) dna. when the tumors were digested with several single-cut restriction enzymes, there were only form iii bpv- ... | 1980 | 6252350 |
| a new phenomenon (smog) associated with solid phase immune electron microscopy. | solid phase immune electron microscopy (spiem) has been used to study the interaction of virus and antibody both quickly and with economy of reagents. unexpectedly, the present study shows that when virus-coated grids are floated on drops of specific antibody the virus particles migrate to form complexes. this has been termed specific migration on the grid (smog) and it is suggested that it can be used both to assess the properties of an antiserum and to make virus more readily detectable. the m ... | 1980 | 6262338 |
| mouse cells transformed by bovine papillomavirus contain only extrachromosomal viral dna sequences. | the viral dna sequences in mouse c127 cells transformed by bovine papillomavirus type 1 (bpv-1) virions, by full-length linear bpv-1 dna, or by a defined transforming subgenomic dna segment of bpv-1 were examined by reassociation kinetics and blot hybridization. in all cases, the transformed cells contained multiple copies of bpv-1 dna, present exclusively as supercoiled or nicked circular extrachromosomal molecules or as a slowly migrating complex of circular viral dna molecules. in the transfo ... | 1981 | 6265905 |

| different papillomaviruses as the causes of oral warts. | we have observed four patients with oral papillomas. two children had oral mucosal lesions characteristic of focal epithelial hyperplasia, a young man had common, wart-like lesions on his hard palate, and a male immunosuppressed renal allograft recipient had condyloma-like lesions on his gingivae. papillomavirus-like particles were seen by electron microscopy in lesions from both patients with focal epithelial hyperplasia. no structural antigens for human papillomavirus (hpv) 1, 2, 3, or 5 were ... | 1982 | 6284061 |
| [detection and mapping of conserved nucleotidic sequences between the genomes of human papillomavirus 1 a and bovine papillomavirus 1 by electron microscope heteroduplex analysis (author's transl)]. | three regions of partial homology have been detected between the genomes of human papillomavirus 1 a (hpv-1 a) and bovine papillomavirus 1 (bpv-1) by electron microscope analysis of heteroduplex molecules. these regions contain about 25% of non-homologous bases and represent 13% of the genome length. they have been mapped on the viral dnas. this allowed a reciprocal orientation of the physical maps of the two genomes. two regions are located in the middle of the transforming fragment of bpv-1 dn ... | 1982 | 6286053 |
| bovine papillomavirus vector that propagates as a plasmid in both mouse and bacterial cells. | we report the construction of a bovine papillomavirus (bpv)-derived recombinant plasmid that propagates as an extrachromosomal element in both mouse and bacterial cells. plasmids composed of a subgenomic transforming fragment of bpv dna, a deletion derivative of pbr322, and a 7.6-kilobase fragment of dna from the human beta-globin gene cluster efficiently induce focus formation on mouse c127 cells. bpv-beta-globin hybrids are maintained in the transformed cells as plasmids with a copy number of ... | 1982 | 6287462 |

| the primary structure and genetic organization of the bovine papillomavirus type 1 genome. | the complete nucleotide sequence of the doubt-stranded circular dna of bovine papillomavirus type 1 (bpv-1) was determined. analysis of this sequence in conjunction with known transcriptional data for the virus provides a basis of determining the organization of the papillomavirus genome. all the major open reading frames are located on the same dna strand. the region transcribed in bpv-transformed cells contains open frames in all three translational frames whereas the region transcribed in pro ... | 1982 | 6289124 |
| purification of bovine papilloma virus by gel filtration on sephacryl s-1000 superfine. | bovine papilloma virus was purified from crude extracts of bovine warts by gel filtration in sephacryl s-1000 superfine. analysis by sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and electron microscopy shows that the virus preparation is as pure as that obtained by alternative techniques. the yield of virus particles is in the range 55-80%. the main advantage of using the gel filtration technique is that it is much less time-consuming than currently used centrifugation procedures. | 1982 | 6296176 |
| a plasmid that replicates in both mouse and e. coli cells. | cloned bovine papilloma virus (bpv) dna induces cellular transformation when introduced into mouse cells growing in culture; the transferred viral dna replicates as an extrachromosomal, closed circular element. bpv dna is therefore an inviting replicon to construct a "shuttle" vector that can replicate in both mammalian cells and e. coli. although bpv dna devoid of bacterial plasmid sequences has been successfully employed to reintroduce cloned genes into rodent cells, construction of a true shu ... | 1982 | 6296255 |
| molecular cloning of bovine papillomavirus genomes and comparison of their sequence homologies by heteroduplex mapping. | the genomic dnas of bovine papillomavirus (bpv) type 1, type 2 and type 4 were cloned in pat153. bpv1 and bpv2 genomes were cloned using the single hindiii sites of the vector and virus dnas, and bpv4 was cloned using the single bamhi sites. the orientation of the recombinant dnas was established by restriction enzyme digestion, hybridization and heteroduplex analysis. the results showed that: (i) bpv1 and bpv2 dnas are in register and are broadly homologous throughout most of their length when ... | 1982 | 6296276 |
| transformation and replication in mouse cells of a bovine papillomavirus--pml2 plasmid vector that can be rescued in bacteria. | the unique ability of bovine papillomavirus (bpv-1) dna to replicate as a stable, multicopy plasmid in transformed mouse cells has led to its utilization as a eukaryotic cloning vector. one limitation of the system has been the marked reduction in transformation efficiency when bpv-1 dna or the subgenomic transforming segment of bpv-1 dna (bpv69t) is covalently linked to pbr322 sequences. a dual host replicon consisting of bpv-1 dna and pml2d, a deletion variant of pbr322, was constructed and sh ... | 1982 | 6296820 |
| papillomatosis of the bovine teat (mammary papilla). | a 4th of 667 cattle examined at a wisconsin abattoir had teat papillomas. excised teat papillomas were sorted by gross morphologic characteristics into 3 groups: (i) atypical filiform, (ii) atypical flat, and (iii) typical fibropapilloma. bovine papilloma virus capsid antigen was detected in thin-section slides of the 3 groups of teat papillomas by peroxidase-antiperoxidase assay. the bovine papilloma virus involved with the atypical papillomas could not be characterized by molecular hybridizati ... | 1982 | 6299141 |
| bovine papilloma virus transcription: polyadenylated rna species and assessment of the direction of transcription. | the bovine papilloma virus type 1 (bpv-1)-specific rna species were identified in virus-induced bovine warts, hamster tumors, and transformed hamster and mouse cells. in each case two major species were present (1.1 and 1.3 kilobases [kb]). also two species of 1.6 and 1.8 kb appearing in variable amounts were found. only in the keratinized periphery of the warts, where virus replication takes place, was it possible to reveal an additional 2-kb rna species. in this tissue, however, the 1.6-kb spe ... | 1982 | 6180175 |
| interferon induces morphologic reversion with elimination of extrachromosomal viral genomes in bovine papillomavirus-transformed mouse cells. | the effect of mouse l-cell interferon on bovine papillomavirus type 1 (bpv-1) transformation of murine cells was examined. mouse interferon reduced the level of bpv-1-induced transformation of mouse c127 cells by 95%. long-term treatment of established bpv-1-transformed mouse cell clones with mouse l-cell interferon led to a decrease in the average number of the plasmid viral genomes present in these cells to 1/3 to 1/8. although revertant lines could not be isolated from these lines in the abse ... | 1982 | 6185955 |

| human papillomavirus 1a complete dna sequence: a novel type of genome organization among papovaviridae. | the complete nucleotide sequence of human papillomavirus type 1a (7811 nucleotides) has been established. the overall organization of the viral genome is different from that of other related papovaviruses (sv40, bkv, polyoma). firstly, genetic information seems to be coded by one strand. secondly, no significant homology is found with sv40 or polyoma coding sequence for either dna or deducted protein sequences. the relatedness of human and bovine papillomaviruses is revealed by a conserved codin ... | 1982 | 6325156 |
| recombinant dna molecules comprising bovine papilloma virus type 1 dna linked to plasmid dna are maintained in a plasmidial state both in rodent fibroblasts and in bacterial cells. | transformed cells obtained after transfecting fr3t3 rat fibroblasts with dna of bovine papilloma virus type 1 ( bpv1 ) maintained only free copies of the viral genome. transfection with bpv1 dna inserted in a bacterial plasmid (pbr322 or pml2 ) did not produce transformants at a detectable rate, unless the viral sequences had been first excised from the plasmid. in contrast, transfer of the same plasmids by polyethylene glycol-induced fusion of bacterial protoplasts with fr3t3 rat or c127 mouse ... | 1982 | 6329696 |

| human papillomavirus: detection of viral dna sequences and evidence for molecular heterogeneity in metaplasias and dysplasias of the uterine cervix. | colposcopic-directed biopsies of the uterine cervix from 22 patients were analyzed for the presence of human papillomavirus (hpv) dna and structural antigens. 11 of the biopsies were classified microscopically as mild dysplasia, 3 as moderate dysplasia, 1 as severe dysplasia, and 7 as squamous metaplasia. nonstringent hybridization with a bovine papillomavirus type 1 dna probe and immunocytochemical analysis with an antiserum against papillomavirus genus-specific structural antigens were perform ... | 1983 | 6317605 |
| glucocorticoid regulation of transcription at an amplified, episomal promoter. | the mouse mammary tumor virus long terminal repeat (mmtv ltr) has been introduced into cultured murine cells, using the 69% transforming fragment of bovine papilloma virus type 1 (bpv). transformed cells contain up to 200 copies of the chimeric molecules per diploid genome. the restriction endonuclease map of the acquired recombinants, as well as the physical structure of the dna, indicates that the ltr-bpv molecules present in these cells occur exclusively as unintegrated, extrachromosomal epis ... | 1983 | 6318079 |
| a stable bovine papillomavirus hybrid plasmid that expresses a dominant selective trait. | we describe a bovine papillomavirus hybrid plasmid containing the neomycin resistance gene from tn5 inserted into a mammalian cell transcriptional unit. this plasmid is maintained as a stable extrachromosomal element (20 to 100 copies per diploid genome) in mouse cells selected either for the transformed phenotype or for resistance to the aminoglycoside g418. cells selected for g418 resistance initially display a flat, nontransformed phenotype before exhibiting the gross morphological characteri ... | 1983 | 6318082 |
| the genomes of bovine papillomaviruses types 3 and 4 are colinear. | the 7.2 kb genomic dna of bovine papillomavirus type 3 (bpv-3) was molecularly cloned using its unique ecori site, and the 7.3 kb genome of bpv-4 was cloned using its single bamhi site. the viral genomes were compared by liquid hybridization, southern blot hybridization and heteroduplex mapping. low stringency hybridization conditions revealed that the genomes are colinear but the sequences are extensively mismatched. the relative alignment of the restriction endonuclease maps of the two viral g ... | 1983 | 6319560 |
| dna sequence and genome organization of genital human papillomavirus type 6b. | the complete nucleotide sequence of the circular double-stranded dna of the genital human papillomavirus type 6b (hpv6b) comprising 7902 bp was determined and compared with the dna sequences of human papillomavirus type 1a (hpv1a) and bovine papillomavirus type 1 (bpv1). all major open reading frames are located on one dna strand only. their arrangement reveals that the genomic organization of hpv6b is similar to that of hpv1a and bpv1. the putative early region includes two large open reading f ... | 1983 | 6321162 |
| inducible expression of the human interferon beta 1 gene linked to a bovine papilloma virus dna vector and maintained extrachromosomally in mouse cells. | a 1.6-kilobase dna segment of the genomic human interferon beta 1 (if-beta 1) gene was inserted into each of two possible orientations at the single hindiii site of a recombinant plasmid pbpv69t, consisting of the 69% transforming region of the bovine papilloma virus type 1 (bpv-1) and a modified sali-sali fragment of plasmid pbr322. after cleavage of the pbr322 sequences from this recombinant, bpv69t-if-beta 1 hybrid dnas were transfected onto c127 mouse cells by the standard calcium precipitat ... | 1983 | 6300659 |
| regulation of a metallothionein-growth hormone hybrid gene in bovine papilloma virus. | we have constructed bovine papilloma virus recombinants carrying a hybrid gene in which human growth hormone structural sequences are fused to the promoter and presumptive control region of the mouse metallothionein-i gene. mouse cells transformed with the recombinants synthesize metallothionein-growth hormone hybrid mrna with the same 5' end as metallothionein mrna. hybrid mrna is inducible by cadmium but not by dexamethasone, whereas the chromosomal metallothionein genes in the same cells are ... | 1983 | 6300840 |
| bovine papillomavirus type 1 genome in hamster sarcoma cells in vivo and in vitro: variation in the level of transcription. | the physical state and expression of the bovine papillomavirus type 1 (bpv-1) genome were analysed in two transplantable hamster sarcomas (ht1 and ht2) after a low number of transplantations, in two tumourigenic cell lines derived from the first transplant of ht2 sarcoma and another transplantable sarcoma (ht3) and in tumours obtained by grafting these cells. blot hybridization experiments indicated the presence of multiple free copies of the whole viral genome in ht1 and ht2 tumour transplants ... | 1983 | 6302215 |
| comparative analysis of the human type 1a and bovine type 1 papillomavirus genomes. | the dna sequences of the genomes of the bovine type 1 and human type 1a papillomaviruses were compared. the overall organization of both genomes is very similar. three areas of maximal homology were found in the l1 and e1/e2 genes, and at the beginning of l2. the conservation of homologous amino acid sequences encoded in the open reading frames argues that these segments represent real genes or exons. within these segments, however, only certain domains of the putative proteins are preferentiall ... | 1983 | 6302319 |
| isolation of episomal bovine papillomavirus chromatin and identification of a dnase i-hypersensitive region. | the investigation of papillomavirus chromatin has been hampered by the unavailability of a tissue culture system for vegetative growth of these viruses. we have used, therefore, bovine papillomavirus type 1-transformed hamster embryo fibroblasts containing 200 to 250 episomal genome equivalents per cell as a source of viral chromatin. the selectively isolated chromatin was shown to be slightly larger (80s) than the mature simian virus 40 chromatin, which was cosedimented in a sucrose density gra ... | 1983 | 6302320 |
| transcriptional control signals in the genome of bovine papillomavirus type 1. | papillomaviruses cause benign tumours in their natural hosts, which, in some cases, become foci for the appearance and spread of malignant carcinomas. it is therefore of considerable interest to analyse the strategy of gene expression of this group of viruses. towards this end, we have used a generally applicable technique, in which we monitor the ability of dna fragments to induce the expression of an inactive thymidine kinase (tk) gene, from which the promoter region has been deleted. using th ... | 1983 | 6302515 |
| recovery of a hybrid vector, derived from bovine papilloma virus dna, pbr322 and the hsv tk gene, by bacterial transformation with extrachromosomal dna from transfected rodent cells. | a bovine papilloma virus (bpv)-pbr322-derived recombinant plasmid carrying a 2-kb fragment of herpes simplex virus dna containing the thymidine kinase (tk) gene is capable of transforming tk- cells of mouse l and syrian hamster bhk21 lines to tk+. in transformed cells a small proportion of the plasmid dna is present as extrachromosomal elements while the remainder appears to be integrated into the genome. it was possible to recover plasmids indistinguishable from the input dna by transformation ... | 1983 | 6303907 |
