摘要：The simian virus 40 small tumor antigen (t antigen) gene has been cloned downstream from a hybrid Escherichia coli trp-lac promoter and a suitable ribosome binding site. A bacterial clone (865i) transformed by such a plasmid (pTR865) expresses this gene and, under optimal conditions, can produce greater than or equal to 5% of its total protein as t antigen. Soluble extracts of such a clone were relatively depleted in t antigen, which was found in the initial pellet fraction. The protein was recovered from this fraction in a significantly purified form by extraction with urea-containing buffer. After gel filtration of such t antigen-enriched solutions, highly purified protein was obtained. When either this fraction (freed of urea) or NaDodSO4 gel-purified 865i t antigen (rendered free of detergent) was injected into untransformed rat cells, dissolution of intracellular actin cable networks was observed.
