Abstract

Gene mapping experiments show that Fis-1, a preferred integration region for Friend murine leukemia virus in hematopoietic neoplasms, is extremely closely linked to Int-2, a preferred integration region for mouse mammary tumor virus in mammary carcinomas. Studies at the RNA and DNA level prove that these loci are distinct.
