heal.abstractA recombinant virus, containing the promoter of a VL30 LTR and tagged with the neomycin gene as a selection and indicator marker, was constructed to investigate transposition events in NIH3T3 cells after SV40 transformation. This retroviral construct was transfected into psi/CRE packaging cells, and pseudovirions were used to infect NIH3T3 cells. Clones resistant to G418 bearing single-copy integrations of the recombinant virus were isolated and transformed by SV40 virus. Transpositions were detected through RFLPs with a neomycin probe and 'retrotransposition' was further confirmed by inverse PCR and DNA sequencing of transposed and parental copies. We found that: (1) retrotransposition of this recombinant virus occurred with a high frequency in a parental clone transformed with SV40 virus suggesting that the frequency of retrotransposition depended on the initial site of provirus integration; (2) the transposition frequency was independent of the transcription level of the recombinant construct; and (3) analysis of transposition-positive transformants showed that the high transposition frequency appeared to be associated with the induction of endogenous reverse transcriptases.en
