  • Title: The nucleotide sequence of the transforming BglII-H fragment of adenovirus type 7 DNA.
    Author: Dijkema R, Dekker BM, Van Ormondt H.
    Journal: Gene; 1980 Apr; 9(1-2):141-56. PubMed ID: 6247243.
    Abstract:
    The nucleotide sequence of the leftmost BglII-H fragment (0--4.5%) of weakly oncogenic human adenovirus serotype 7 (Ad7) has been determined (1568 base pairs). This is the shortest Ad7 DNA fragment reported to transform primary rat cells into an immortal cell line (Dijkema et al., 1979). The l-strand of BhlII-H was found to contain the complete information for a polypeptide of at most 28 051 daltons, followed by the putative promoter site of the next gene. Comparison of the determined Ad7 sequence with that of the corresponding region of non-oncogenic Ad5 (Van Ormondt et al., 1978; Maat and Van Ormondt, 1979) showed that the over-all organization of the two DNAs is quite similar, but that the sequences, except in regions of suspected strategic importance, diverge considerably.
