Polyomavirus middle T antigen does not overcome p53-mediated
G1 arrest in mouse embryo fibroblasts. Middle T antigen
still associates with the signaling molecules phosphatidylinositol
3-kinase and SHC and activates the transcriptional activity of
c-Myc and AP1 in p53-arrested cells. Examination of cell cycle
regulatory proteins indicated that p53 does not interfere with these
mitogenic signals but acts later in the G1 phase of the
cell cycle.
