Abstract

Ad2++ HEY and Ad2++ LEY are two adenovirus 2(Ad2)-simian virus 40 (SV40) hybrids distinguished by differences in the efficiency with which they produce SV40 progeny in lytically infected African green monkey kidney cells. These virus populations are composed of nonhybrid Ad2 and hybrid virions, the majority of which contain more than 1 unit of SV40 DNA. The Ad2++ HEY and LEY populations also differ in their ability to induce SV40 transplantation immunity in rodents. Only Ad2++ HEY induces SV40 transplantation immunity in hamsters, whereas both viruses induce significant SV40 transplantation immunity in adult BALB/c mice.
