Evidence for the direct involvement of DNA replication origin in synthesis of late SV40 RNA

Nature volume 300, pages 500–505 (1982)Cite this article

Analysis of the late simian virus 40 (SV40) transcription initiation patterns of viable and non-viable mutants and a DNA replication-negative mutant in permissive monkey cells and/or in Xenopus laevis oocytes suggests a direct role for the origin of DNA replication in the activation of late transcription.
