Simian virus 40 and cancer [PDF]
Since its discovery in 1960 as a contaminant of poliovaccines, Simian Virus 40 (SV40) has been the object of extensive studies to assess whether this oncogenic virus plays a role in human carcinogenesis.

Establishment and characterization of transformed goat primary cells by expression of simian virus 40 large T antigen for orf virus propagations. [PDF]
Due to the limited host range of orf virus (ORFV), primary cells derived from its natural hosts, such as goats and sheep, are recommended for isolation and propagation of wild type ORFV.

Serological evidence of an early seroconversion to Simian virus 40 in healthy children and adolescents. [PDF]
At present Simian virus 40 (SV40) infection in humans appears to be transmitted independently from early contaminated vaccines. In order to test the spread of SV40 infection in children, an immunologic assay employing specific SV40 synthetic peptides ...

Minimal Genome, Maximal Effect: How Polyomavirus Genomes Are Capable of Complex Pathogenesis [PDF]
The Polyomaviridae family contains members known for achieving high seroprevalence within their target species despite a limited genomic economy. Minimalism, by definition, allows for the clarification and streamlining of purpose via the removal of ...

Interaction between Simian Virus 40 Major Capsid Protein VP1 and Cell Surface Ganglioside GM1 Triggers Vacuole Formation [PDF]
Simian virus 40 (SV40), a polyomavirus that has served as an important model to understand many aspects of biology, induces dramatic cytoplasmic vacuolization late during productive infection of monkey host cells.

Simian virus 40 and human cancer. [PDF]
Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) oncoviruses can induce neoplastic transformation by interfering with proliferative proteins. Simian virus 40 (SV40) has been shown to induce brain tumors, osteosarcoma, lymphoid tumors and malignant mesothelioma in hamsters and SV40-like DNA sequences corresponding to the Rb-pocket binding domain of SV40 T-antigen (Tag) have

Interaction of Simian Virus 40 chromatin with Simian Virus 40 T-antigen [PDF]
We have studied the binding of the tumor antigen (T-antigen) of simian virus 40 to simian virus 40 chromatin (minichromosomes). The minichromosomes isolated from infected cells by a modification of standard techniques were relatively free of contaminating RNA and cellular DNA and had a ratio (by weight) of protein to DNA of approximately 1; their DNA ...
