Cellular Origin of a Mouse Leukemia Viral Ribonucleic Acid

PMCID: PMC375462  PMID: 4302747

Abstract

Mouse erythroblastosis virus, a member of the mouse leukemia virus group, was obtained from chronically infected C3H mouse embryo cells and purified on sucrose gradients. The ribonucleic acid (RNA) extracted from ribonuclease-treated virus consisted of a rapidly sedimenting (72S) species and a more slowly sedimenting component (4 to 30S). The 72S RNA did not contain base sequences homologous to deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) from infected cells as determined by hybridization studies. In contrast, the slowly sedimenting RNA enclosed within the virus had base sequences homologous to DNA from infected and uninfected C3H mouse embryo cells.
