    Simian virus 40 large tumour antigen (T) is a replication origin binding protein required for viral DNA synthesis. Unphosphorylated T antigen is deficient in promoting DNA replication in vitro but can be activated by phosphorylation at residue threonine 124 by the cdc2 protein kinase. This observation demonstrates that T is regulated by phosphorylation and provides a model for cdc2 function in the control of DNA replication.
