We report here the cloning and sequencing of the major late promoter (MLP) and the tripartite leader (TPL) from simian adenovirus type 30 (sAd30) and the comparison of the sAd30 nucleotide (nt) sequence with that of human adenoviruses (hAd). The nt sequence homology between sAd30 and hAd2 is 75% from -66 to +190 relative to the cap site. This sAd30 MLP segment contains the upstream regulatory sequence element, TATA box, and downstream regulatory sequence elements that are homologous to hAd MLP. The sAd30 upstream regulatory sequence has a small palindromic DNA sequence GTCACGTGAC, and the TATA box contains the sequence of ATAAA instead of TATAAA. The sAd30 TPL was located on the sAd30 genome as identified by sequence homology with the hAd counterpart. The splice sites of TPL introns were confirmed by sequence analysis of cDNAs synthesized from sAd30-infected cells. There is a 74.2% nt sequence homology between the TPL of sAd30 and hAd2. The conservation of these sequence elements during evolution of Ad suggests that they are essential for the transcription and translation of Ad ML transcripts.
