RESUMO
Adeno-associated virus (AAV) has an antiproliferative action on cells. We investigated the effect of the AAV replication proteins (Rep) on the cell division cycle using retroviral vectors. Rep78 and Rep68 inhibited the growth of primary, immortalized and transformed cells, while Rep52 and Rep40 did not. Rep68 induced cell cycle arrest in phases G1 and G2, with elevated CDK inhibitor p21 and reduced cyclin E-, A- and B1-associated kinase activity. Rep78-expressing cells were also impaired in S-phase progression and accumu lated almost exclusively with hypophosphorylated retinoblastoma protein (pRb). The differences between Rep78 and Rep68 were mapped to the C-terminal zinc finger domain of Rep78. Rep78-induced S-phase arrest could be bypassed by adenoviral E1A or papillomaviral E7 proteins but not by E1A or E7 mutants unable to bind pRb. Rb–/– primary mouse embryonic fibroblasts displayed a strongly reduced S-phase arrest when challenged with Rep78, compared with matched Rb+/+ controls. These results suggest that physiological levels of active pRb can interfere with S-phase progression. We propose that the AAV Rep78 protein arrests cells within S-phase by a novel mechanism involving the ectopic accumulation of active pRb.
