New antibiotic pumilacidins A, B, C, D, E, F and G were isolated from the culture broth of a strain of Bacillus pumilus. They are cyclic acylheptapeptide composed of a beta-hydroxy fatty acid, two L-leucine, two D-leucine, L-glutamic acid, L-aspartic acid and L-isoleucine (or L-valine). Pumilacidin components were inhibitory to herpes simplex virus type 1 and H+, K(+)-ATPase and demonstrated antiulcer activity in rat.

The herpes simplex virus type 1 helicase-primase complex consists of the products of the UL5, UL8 and UL52 genes. We have expressed these proteins in insect cells using baculovirus vectors and studied the requirements for enzymatic activities associated with the DNA unwinding function of the complex. In agreement with a recent report (Dodson, M.S., Crute, J.J., Bruckner, R.C. and Lehman, I.R. 1989, J. Biol. Chem. 264, 20835-20838) we find that DNA-dependent ATPase and DNA helicase activities are assembled in vivo in insect cells triply infected with viruses expressing the UL5, UL8 and UL52 proteins. Moreover, these activities were also detected in cells in which only the UL5 and UL52 products were expressed indicating that the presence of the UL8 protein is essential for neither the ATPase nor helicase activity of the complex.

Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) encodes a helicase-primase that consists of three polypeptides encoded by the UL5, UL8, and UL52 genes (Crute, J.J., Tsurumi, T., Zhu, L., Weller, S.K., Olivo, P.D., Challberg, M.D., Mocarski, E.S., and Lehman, I.R. (1989) Proc. Natl. Acad, Sci, U.S.A. 86, 2186-2189). To obtain sufficient quantities of the enzyme for study, we have overexpressed the three genes using the baculovirus expression system. We find that the fully active enzyme can be assembled in vivo by triply infecting Spodoptera frugiperda SF9 cells with a baculovirus recombinant for each gene. The recombinant enzyme which we have purified to near homogeneity from the insect cells has a molecular weight of 270,000 and is composed of the three polypeptides encoded by the UL5, UL8, and UL52 genes. The enzyme possesses DNA-dependent ATPase, DNA-dependent GTPase, DNA helicase, and DNA primase activities that are essentially identical to the enzyme isolated from HSV-1-infected cells.

We have identified and partially purified a DNA-dependent ATPase that is present specifically in herpes simplex virus type 1-infected Vero cells. The enzyme which has a molecular weight of approximately 440,000 differs from the comparable host enzyme in its elution from phosphocellulose columns and in its nucleoside triphosphate specificity. The partially purified DNA-dependent ATPase is also a DNA helicase that couples ATP or GTP hydrolysis to the displacement of an oligonucleotide annealed to M13 single-stranded DNA. The enzyme requires a 3' single-stranded tail on the duplex substrate, suggesting that the polarity of unwinding is 5'----3' relative to the M13 DNA. The herpes specific DNA helicase may therefore translocate on the lagging strand in the semidiscontinuous replication of the herpes virus 1 genome.

Eleven simian virus 40-transformed cell lines from 5 different species were tested for their ability to amplify integrated simian virus 40 DNA upon infection with herpes simplex virus type I or treatment with various chemical carcinogens. Four cell lines were positive only for virus-induced gene amplification and two lines were positive for both carcinogen- and virus-induced gene amplification. Individual cell lines were assayed for the presence of an intact SV40 origin of replication, the expression of a functional SV40 T-antigen, and permissivity to herpes simplex virus replication. These parameters were found to be positive in all 6 amplification-competent cell lines. The ability of herpes simplex virus to amplify SV40 DNA sequences in transformed cells is greater than that of chemical carcinogens and can be suppressed by specific inhibitors of the herpes virus-encoded DNA polymerase.

Nuclei from baby hamster kidney cells infected with herpes simplex virus type 1 contain a virus-specific deoxyribonucleoside triphosphate degrading activity. The reaction proceeds at 4 degrees C and can thus be distinguished from host enzymes. Under these conditions the enzyme is specific for deoxyribopyrimide triphosphates and catalyzes pyrophosphate cleavage to produce the monophosphates, dUTP being the best substrate followed by dCTP and dTTP. The appearance of the activity after infection parallels that of viral DNA-synthesis-related functions. Of a series of eight temperature-sensitive mutants tested, two (tsD and tsK) exhibit significantly decreased triphosphatase levels after infection at nonpermissive temperature, whereas a viral deoxypyrimidine kinase-deficient mutant induced wild-type levels.

The nonionic detergent Triton X-100 was used for the solubilization of Mg2"ependent adenosine triphosphatase (Mg2+ATPase) associated with mature herpes simplex virus (HSV) particles purified from infected rabbit lung (ZP) cells. The solubilization was the best at pH 8.1 with a Triton X-100 to protein ratio of 10. The solubilized enzyme splited ATP at the greatest rate at pH from 7.9 to 8.6. pH greater than 8.6 during extraction had a deleterious effect on the enzyme. In the presence of NaCl significantly more proteins were extracted but the enzyme was slightly inhibited. No enhancement of the enzyme activity after detergent treatment and the relatively mild conditions for extraction indicated that the enzyme is not too firmly associated with the surface of the herpesvirions.

Infection of cells with herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) induces high levels of deoxypyrimidine triphosphatase. The majority of the enzyme activity is found in infected cell nuclei. A similar activity is induced by HSV type 2 (HSV-2) which, in contrast to the HSV-1 enzyme, fractionates to more than 99% in the soluble cytoplasmic extract. Of a series of temperature-sensitive mutants of HSV-1 studied, only the immediate-early mutants in complementation group 1-2 (strain 17 mutants tsD and tsK and strain KOS mutant tsB2) induced reduced levels of triphosphatase at nonpermissive temperature. Of a series of temperature-sensitive mutants of HSV-2 strain HG52, ts9 and ts13 failed to induce wild-type levels of the enzyme at nonpermissive temperature; ts9 was the most defective mutant with regard to triphosphatase expression of both herpes simplex virus serotypes. After shift-up from permissive to nonpermissive temperature, triphosphatase activity in cells infected with ts9 decreased rapidly, whereas all other mutants continued to exhibit enzyme levels comparable with controls kept at the permissive temperature. The type 1-specific nuclear expression of the triphosphatase was mapped physically by the use of HSV-1 x HSV-2 intertypic recombinants, based on enzyme levels different by more than two orders of magnitude found in nuclei of HSV-1- and HSV-2-infected cells. The locus for the type-specific expression maps between 0.67 and 0.68 fractional length on the HSV genome.

In a blind study, 21 clinical isolates of herpes simplex virus which had been typed using differential growth on guinea pig embryo versus chicken embryo cells were tested for the presence of the viral deoxyribopyrimidine triphosphatase. In all isolates of type 1, the triphosphatase was present in the nuclei of the infected cells, while none of the HSV-2 isolates induced a nuclear enzyme. In all isolates there was a complete correlation between the presence of nuclear deoxyribopyrimidine triphosphatase and sensitivity to 0.7 microgram/ml of E-5-(2-bromovinyl)-2'-deoxyuridine. The study suggests that the type-specific distribution of the triphosphatase is of general validity, including clinical isolates of herpes simplex virus, and could be used as a type-specific enzyme marker.

Thymidine kinase-negative Friend leukemia cells were cotransfected with simian virus 40 (SV40) DNA and thymidine kinase gene DNA of herpes simplex virus type 1. The transfected thymidine kinase-positive cells were selected in HAT medium, and SV40 T-antigen expression was observed over many months in cells cultured under selective conditions, and after adaptation to normal growth medium under nonselective conditions. It was shown by Southern blot hybridization that SV40 DNA was integrated in multiple copies in the chromosomal DNA of several clones. All SV40 DNA-containing Friend leukemia cell clones analyzed were able to undergo induced erythroid differentiation. Induced cultures still expressed SV40 T-antigen to the same extent that untreated control cultures did.
