CC -!- FUNCTION: Promotes efficient viral genome replication by accelerating CC both G1 and S phase progression of the cell cycle. Inhibits host PP2A CC by binding to the A subunit, thereby displacing lower affinity CC regulatory B subunit. Inactivation of PP2A in turn results in the CC transactivation of cyclin A and cyclin D1 promoters. Late during the CC infection cycle, ST may induce dephosphorylation of host MTOR, leading CC to the inhibition of cap-dependent translation. May establish and CC maintain high levels of viral genomes during persistent infection in CC cell culture. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P03081}. CC -!- SUBUNIT: Interacts with host PPP2R1A; the interaction inhibits PP2A CC activity. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P03081}. CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Host cytoplasm. Host nucleus CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P03081}. CC -!- ALTERNATIVE PRODUCTS: CC Event=Alternative splicing; Named isoforms=2; CC Name=Small t antigen; CC IsoId=P03082-1; Sequence=Displayed; CC Name=Large T antigen; CC IsoId=P03071-1; Sequence=External; CC -!- DOMAIN: The common region of ST and LT proteins comprises the J domain. CC This domain is essential for multiple viral activities, including CC virion assembly, viral DNA replication, transformation and CC transcriptional activation. This domain is also required for cyclin A- CC transactivating activity of ST. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P03081}. CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: The strain Dunlop sequence is shown.
