Abstract
The DNA tumor virus adenovirus infects human cells, recruits them into a proliferative state, and borrows elements of the host cell transcription, translation, and DNA replication machinery to reproduce viral proteins and DNA. In rodent cells which are semipermissive for adenovirus infection, cell growth is deregulated but virus replication is ineffective. As the viral infection does not progress to completion, the deregulation of cell growth control produces transformation. The viral genes required for oncogenic transformation are the E1A and E1B oncogenes.
