Abstract

Serum from Rous sarcoma virus tumor-bearing rabbits immunoprecipitated from extracts of the freshwater sponge Spongilla lacustris a tyrosine-specific protein kinase with characteristics similar to the chicken pp60c-src kinase activity. An immune competition assay confirmed the relationship between the protein from sponges and viral pp60v-src.
