The initiation of simian virus 40 assembly is blocked at the nonpermissive temperature in cells infected with the viral capsid protein VP1 mutant tsC219. Greater than 95% of the minichromosomes isolated from these cells are accessible to cleavage by Bgl I and Sph I, which recognize the sequences near the viral replication origin and in the transcription enhancer elements, respectively. The accessibility of the Ori region to Bgl I is considerably reduced when virion assembly is allowed to proceed in tsC219-infected cells at the permissive temperature. A reduced accessibility to Bgl I is also observed for chromatin isolated from cells infected with wt776, the wild-type parental strain of tsC219. For wt776 chromatin, variability to Bgl I sensitivity is observed and this can be correlated to the relative virion-to-chromatin yield. A similar correlation is not apparent for restriction endonucleases that recognize sequences within the coding region of simian virus 40 chromatin. These results, considered together, indicate that, when virion assembly initiation is blocked, nucleosomes are nonrandomly arranged with respect to the viral regulatory sequences. It appears that the open regulatory region in minichromosomes is established during replication and that a protected regulatory region is generated with the onset of virion assembly.

A block in initiation of simian virus 40 assembly results in the accumulation of minichromosomes containing an exposed regulatory region.
