The E2 open reading frame of bovine papillomavirus type 1 has been shown genetically to encode at least three transcriptional regulatory factors, and three E2 specific proteins have been recently identified in virally transformed rodent cells. In this study, the genes encoding these E2 specific proteins have been determined. The 48-kilodalton (kDa) protein was identified as the product of a full-length E2 open reading frame cDNA, which confirmed that this polypeptide is the E2 transactivator. The 31-kDa E2 protein species, which is the most abundant E2 specific polypeptide, was identified by analysis of both bovine papillomavirus type 1 mutants and cDNAs to be the previously identified E2 transcriptional repressor, E2-TR, which results from translation initiation at an internal E2 ATG codon. The smallest E2 protein species, the 28-kDa polypeptide, was identified as the product of the E8/E2 fusion gene which results from translation of a spliced mRNA species.
