During @entity281 with adenovirus, massive changes in the transcription of virus genes are observed, suggesting that the expression of cellular genes may also be modulated. To characterize the levels of cellular RNA species in infected cells, cDNA arrays were screened 24 h after @entity281 of HeLa cells with wild-type adenovirus type 5, strain dl309. Despite complete transduction of the cells, fewer than 20 cellular genes (out of 4,600 analyzed and 1,200 found detectable and expressed above background) were altered more than threefold in their corresponding RNA levels compared to mock-infected cells. In particular, the expression of the myc oncogene was reduced at the mRNA level. This reduction was dependent on the replication of virus DNA and partially dependent on the presence of the adenovirus gene products @entity6860 -55 kDa and E4orf6, but not E4orf3. On the other hand, MYC protein had an increased half-life in infected cells, resulting in roughly constant steady-state protein levels. The adenovirus E1A gene product is necessary and sufficient to stabilize MYC. Overexpressed MYC inhibited adenovirus replication and the proper formation of the virus replication centers. We conclude that @entity9504 leads to the stabilization of MYC, perhaps as a side effect of E1A activities. On the other hand, myc mRNA levels are negatively regulated during @entity9504 , and this may avoid the detrimental effect of excessive MYC on adenovirus replication.

Mutual interference of XXXX and myc expression.
