Close similarity between endogenous ecotropic virus of Mus musculus molossinus and AKR virus
Abstract
By using seven different restriction endonucleases, the cleavage patterns of the unintegrated provioral DNA from an ecotropic murine leukemia virus isolated from Mus musculus molossinus were found to be identical to those of AKR virus. An AKR [3H]DNA probe can be completely saturated with M. musculus molossinus and M. musculus castaneus DNAs, although the arrangement of viral sequences in M. musculus molossinus DNA differed from that of AKR virus. These studies indicate that an AKR-type ecotropic virus is present in some wild Asiatic mice.
