Deletion of direct repeats in retroviral genomes provides an in vivo system for analysis of reverse transcriptase (RT) template switching. The effect of distance between direct repeats on the rate of deletion was determined for 16 murine leukemia virus (MLV)-based vectors containing a 701-bp direct repeat of overlapping fragments of the herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase gene (HTK). The direct repeats were separated by spacer fragments of various lengths (0.1 to 3.5 kb). Southern analysis of infected cells after one replication cycle indicated that all vectors in which the distance between homologous sequences was >1,500 bp deleted at very high rates (>90%). In contrast, vectors containing <1,500 bp between homologous sequences exhibited lower frequencies of deletion (37 to 82%). To analyze the pattern of locations at which RT switched templates, restriction site markers were introduced to divide the downstream direct repeat into five regions. RT switched templates within all five regions of the 701-bp direct repeat and the frequency of template switching was greater within the 5' regions in comparison to the 3' regions. The probability of RT switching templates within the 5' regions doubled when the MLV packaging sequence (Psi) was placed between the 701-bp direct repeats. However, Psi did not increase the rate of template switching for shorter direct repeats. These results indicate that linear distance between homologous sequences increases the rate of template switching and suggest that duplex formation between nascent DNA and homologous template sequences 3' of RT promote template switching.
