Twelve linker insertion mutations have been constructed in the 3' part of the pol gene of Moloney murine leukemia virus. This region of the Moloney murine leukemia virus genome encodes IN or p46pol, which is required for integration of the retroviral DNA into the host cell chromosome. Viral proteins synthesized by these mutants were used to pseudotype a neo-containing retroviral vector. Ten of twelve linker insertion mutant pseudotypes were unable to generate stable proviruses in infected mouse cells, as measured by the formation of G418-resistant colonies. Two mutants mapping at the 3' terminus of the IN-encoding region were competent for the formation of stable vector proviruses (hundreds of G418-resistant colonies per mutant pseudotype-infected plate). Representative linker insertion mutants were also tested for the ability to synthesize viral unintegrated DNA in newly infected cells. All assayed mutants were capable of synthesizing all normal forms of viral unintegrated DNA. The structure of integrated vector proviruses generated by defective and nondefective linker insertion mutants was also analyzed. All replication-competent mutants generated normal proviruses, while the few obtainable proviruses generated by replication-defective mutants were sometimes aberrant in structure. These results argue strongly (and confirm previous data) that the IN-encoding region of pol does not play a significant role in DNA synthesis, but is absolutely required for the formation of normal proviral DNA.
