The long control region (LCR) of the bovine papillomavirus type 1 genome can function as a conditional transcriptional enhancer which can be specifically trans-activated by the viral E2 gene product. To precisely map the target(s) of this trans-activation,
BAL
31 exonuclease was used to generate two overlapping series of deleted DNA segments through the LCR. These fragments were assayed for their ability to activate transcription from the enhancer-deleted simian virus 40 early promoter of pA10CAT in the presence or absence of the viral E2 gene product. Two different E2-responsive elements were localized within the LCR. The major target for E2 trans-activation (E2-responsive element 1) was mapped to a 196-base-pair fragment between nucleotides 7611 and 7806, just upstream from promoters P7940 and
P89
. Further deletions which destroyed or impaired enhancer function revealed that the ACCN6GGT sequence motifs at each end of E2-responsive element 1 are critical components of this element. Primer extension analysis of RNA extracted from acute transfections with plasmids containing the bovine papillomavirus type 1 LCR driving the CAT gene revealed that each of the P7940 and
P89
promoters is responsive to E2 trans-activation.
