The mRNAs for myogenic functions are coordinately transcribed with polyomavirus (Py) early mRNA during in vitro differentiation of mouse C2 myoblast cells. Sequence analysis shows that the A domain of the Py enhancer includes an E1A-like consensus sequence that is also found in the 5' upstream region of two genes expressed during myoblast differentiation: alpha-actin and myosin light chain. Therefore, the coordinate expression of such genes with Py early mRNA may be activated by a common cellular regulatory factor. In the present work, we report that C2 cells surviving Py infection are unable to differentiate and do not express alpha-actin and myosin light-chain mRNAs. Hybrids between such Py-resistant myoblast cells and the parental cells exhibited dominance of the permissibility to Py growth and of the expression of myogenic mRNAs. In C2 cells transiently transfected with a chimeric plasmid (pSVPy12CAT) harboring the bacterial chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) gene driven by the Py enhancer-promoter region, the CAT gene was expressed irrespective of their stage of differentiation. Moreover, undifferentiated stably transfected cells expressing the CAT gene restricted viral growth. Py-resistant C2 myoblasts transiently transfected with pSVPy12CAT also expressed the CAT gene driven by the Py enhancer. This contradictory finding is similar to results previously obtained by other investigators with cloned genes specific for myogenic functions, and it may be explained by a structural difference between the pSVPy12CAT and the Py genomic organizations in which the viral enhancer operates.
