We have used two methods to induce template replication in order to assess the effect on expression of marker genes controlled by herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) promoters. One method used the HSV-1 origin of DNA replication from the short repeat region of the viral genome (HSV-1oris), and allowed simultaneous replication and transcriptional activation of the plasmid-borne template. The other, using the simian virus 40 origin of replication (SV40ori) allowed plasmid template replication prior to activation of transcription by HSV-1 infection. The two regimes had markedly different effects upon the levels of reporter gene activity induced by HSV-1 superinfection. Replication of reporter plasmids using the SV40oriyielded levels of reporter gene activity proportional to plasmid copy number when cells were superinfected with HSV-1. In contrast, our results indicated that sequences containing, or in close proximity to, the HSV-1orisin the reporter plasmid had a significant inhibitory effect on expression from all viral promoters whether or not the plasmid was allowed to replicate. Still, the early (β) promoter-controlled reporter enzyme activity declined at late times while that controlled by the strict late (γ) promoter was significantly higher following HSV-1oris-mediated template replication.
