The bovine papillomavirus type 1 (BPV-1) E2 open reading frame encodes three proteins: the E2 transcriptional transactivator, the E2 transcriptional repressor (E2-TR), and the E8/E2 fusion peptide. In this study, we describe the phenotypes of BPV-1 mutants which are disrupted in their capacity to encode either the E2 transcriptional repressor or the E8/E2 fusion peptide. We also describe experiments which demonstrate that the E8/E2 gene product functions similarly to E2-TR. In the context of the entire viral genome, disruption of E8/E2 expression had little effect on viral processes, whereas disruption of E2-TR expression resulted in a complex phenotype marked by a 10- to 20-fold increase in viral DNA plasmid copy number as well as increased transformation potential. A double mutant, defective in the expression of both E8/E2 and E2-TR proteins, had high levels of E2 transactivation activity yet had reduced plasmid replication capacity and a delayed capacity to transform rodent cells.
