The myeloproliferative sarcoma virus retains transforming functions after introduction of a dominant selectable marker gene.
The dominant neomycin resistance gene (neoR) was introduced into the genome of the myeloproliferative sarcoma virus (MPSV), a replication-defective retrovirus carrying the mos oncogene. The resulting selectable neoR-MPSV virus did not lose its acute transforming property, unlike the results of attempts by other groups to insert marker genes into oncogenic viruses. NeoR-MPSV DNA was used to gene...
متن کاملNeomycin resistance as a dominant selectable marker for selection and isolation of vaccinia virus recombinants.
The antibiotic G418 was shown to be an effective inhibitor of vaccinia virus replication when an appropriate concentration of it was added to cell monolayers 48 h before infection. Genetic engineering techniques were used in concert with DNA transfection protocols to construct vaccinia virus recombinants containing the neomycin resistance gene (neo) from transposon Tn5. These recombinants conta...
متن کاملCharacterization of the transforming gene of Fujinami sarcoma virus.
The src gene present in all avian sarcoma viruses is not present in the genome of Fujinami sarcoma virus, a potent sarcoma-inducing virus in chickens. Fujinami virus is defective and requires helper virus for replication. RNA from a mixture of helper and transforming viruses consists of two components, 35S and 28S. Oligonucleotide fingerprinting of each RNA component revealed that the 35S compo...
متن کاملMyeloproliferative disorder of rats induced by myeloproliferative sarcoma virus.
The pathogenesis of myeloproliferative disorder remains unknown, but there have been some experiments on murine myeloproliferative sarcoma induced by certain viruses. Myeloproliferative sarcoma virus which is well known among such viruses, causes myeloproliferative disorder in mice and today's work will reveal tumorigenicity of this virus in rats. Two groups of Jar-2 rats (31 young rats and 28 ...
متن کاملCytokine prestimulation as a gene therapy strategy: implications for using the MDR1 gene as a dominant selectable marker.
A major obstacle to stem cell gene therapy is the extremely low efficiency of stem cell transduction. In vivo selection is a strategy for enriching a minor population of genetically modified bone marrow cells through the introduction of a drug resistance gene, followed by subsequent administration of the corresponding cytotoxic drug in vivo. Achieving persistent effects from in vivo selection i...
