The hamster cell line BHK268-C31 contains two large viral inserts which both include sequences from the left-hand end of adenovirus type 5 (Ad5) DNA. One of these viral inserts has been cloned in the lambda vector Charon 4A. Electron microscopic analysis and restriction enzyme mapping shows that the recombinant carries a 4.4-kb-long colinear segment of viral DNA, which is located between map positions 1.5 and 14.2 in the Ad5 genome. The junctions between viral DNA and flanking sequences have been sequenced and found not to show any specific features. One of the junctions is located in the E1a coding region, 573 bp from the left-hand end of the Ad5 genome, whereas the other junction is situated in the coding region for polypeptide IVa2. The promoter region as well as the cap site for the mRNAs from region E1a are thus missing from this insert and its role in viral transformation is unclear.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007668 Kidney Body organ that filters blood for the secretion of URINE and that regulates ion concentrations. Kidneys
D008854 Microscopy, Electron Microscopy using an electron beam, instead of light, to visualize the sample, thereby allowing much greater magnification. The interactions of ELECTRONS with specimens are used to provide information about the fine structure of that specimen. In TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY the reactions of the electrons that are transmitted through the specimen are imaged. In SCANNING ELECTRON MICROSCOPY an electron beam falls at a non-normal angle on the specimen and the image is derived from the reactions occurring above the plane of the specimen. Electron Microscopy
