Structures of E1A promoter of wt Ad5, AdΔEP-TETP and E1 region of AdCMV-eGFP, AdTETP-CD40L/IL-2. (A) The first 650 bp of the wt Ad genome comprising the left ITR, enhancer elements (EI, EII), packaging elements (I-VII), minor (thin arrows) and major (bold arrow) transcriptional start sites, TATA-box and the beginning of the E1A ORF. (B) Insertion of TETP in combination with duplication of packaging elements V-VII and deletion of endogenous E1A promoter resulting in AdΔEP-TETP. (C) In AdCMV-eGPF, the deleted E1 region from nt 449 to 3333 is replaced with the CMV-eGPF expression cassette. (D) In AdTETP, the deleted E1 region from nt 449 to 3333 is replaced with the TETP-CD40L-IRES-IL-2 expression cassette. The nucleotide numbers refer to the corresponding wt sequence.
