DNA Methyltransferase Is a Downstream Effector of Cellular Transformation Triggered by Simian Virus 40 Large T Antigen

Andrew Slack, Nadia Cervoni, Marc Pinard, and Moshe Szyf

From the Department of Pharmacology and Therapeutics, McGill University, Montreal, Quebec H3G 1Y6, Canada

This paper tests the hypothesis that DNA methyltransferase plays a causal role in cellular transformation induced by SV40 T antigen. We show that T antigen expression results in elevation of DNA methyltransferase (MeTase) mRNA, DNA MeTase protein levels, and global genomic DNA methylation. A T antigen mutant that has lost the ability to bind pRb does not induce DNA MeTase. This up-regulation of DNA MeTase by T antigen occurs mainly at the posttranscriptional level by altering mRNA stability. Inhibition of DNA MeTase by antisense oligonucleotide inhibitors results in inhibition of induction of cellular transformation by T antigen as determined by a transient transfection and soft agar assay. These results suggest that elevation of DNA MeTase is an essential component of the oncogenic program induced by T antigen.
