1 9188573 Within the U3 repeats, the major determinant of T-cell specificity has been mapped to binding sites for the AML1 transcription factor family (also known as the core binding factor [CBF], polyomavirus enhancer binding protein 2 [PEBP2], and SL3-3 enhancer factor 1 [SEF-1]).
2 9188573 Moreover, proviruses were found to be integrated at the c-myc locus in similar proportions of wild-type and mutant SL3-3-induced tumors, and the mutated AML1 sites of proviruses at c-myc are unaltered.
3 9188573 In some cases, however, including one c-myc-integrated provirus, a single-base pair change was detected in a second, weaker AML1 binding site.
4 9188573 By DNA rearrangement analysis of the T-cell receptor beta-locus, tumors induced by the AML1 site mutants are found to be of the T-cell type.
5 9188573 Thus, although the AML1 site mutants have weakened T-cell-specific enhancers they are T-lymphomagenic, and wild-type- and mutant-virus-induced tumor DNAs are similar with respect to the number of overall ecotropic and c-myc-integrated clonal proviruses.
