Amino acid sequence analysis of fragments generated by partial proteolysis from large simian virus 40 tumor antigen

M Schwyzer, R Weil, G Frank and H Zuber

Large simian virus 40 tumor antigen was bound as immune complex to protein A-Sepharose and then subjected to limited proteolysis which yielded several discrete fragments. Primary structures near the cleavage sites were determined by radiosequencing techniques. Experimental data for five fragments matched an amino acid sequence predicted from a nucleotide sequence at 0.51 map unit of the viral genome. We have thus identified the reading frame of translation beyond the intervening sequence at 0.60 to 0.53 map units. A cleavage map of tumor antigen was established on the basis of the sequence data and of the apparent molecular weights of the fragments. The bond most susceptible to cleavage by trypsin was between arginine-130 and lysine- 131 in a cluster of five basis amino acids. Other cleavage sites were located in the COOH-terminal half of tumor antigen. Each fragment was analyzed by complete tryptic proteolysis and peptide mapping on an ion exchange column. Peaks occurring in the peptide map of large tumor antigen could thus be assigned to different segments of the protein. Two specific regions of tumor antigen were shown to be phosphorylated.
