Development of an endogenous virus-free line of chickens susceptible to all subgroups of avian leukosis virus.
Primary chicken embryo fibroblasts (CEF) from special specific pathogen-free chicken lines are used for detection of contamination of adult or embryonic tissues, meconium, or tissue culture fluids with avian leukosis viruses (ALV). The suitability and efficiency of such tests depend on the susceptibility of CEF to the various subgroups of exogenous as well as endogenous ALV. The ideal CEF for s...
متن کاملIndependent regulation of endogenous and exogenous avian RNA tumor virus genes.
3H-Labeled complementary DNA specific for the envelope glycoprotein (env) gene of avian leukosis-sarcoma viruses was isolated by selective nucleic acid hybridization techniques, and used to analyze the expression of the endogenous provirus. The endogenous provirus in certain cell types termed chicken helper factor positive (chf+) can synthesize the envelope glycoprotein. Env DNA sequences were ...
متن کاملThe epidemiology of avian lymphoid leukosis.
Avian lymphoid leukosis can be induced by lymphoid leukosis viruses belonging to Subgroups A, B, C, and D. The endogenous virus of the chicken (Rous-associated virus type 0) belongs to Subgroup E and has little, if any, potential for inducing lymphoid leukosis. Nearly all chicken flocks are infected with Subgroup A lymphoid leukosis virus. This virus can be transmitted from dam to offspring or ...
متن کاملSegregation of EAV-HP ancient endogenous retroviruses within the chicken population.
Avian leukosis virus subgroup J (ALV-J), an exogenous avian retrovirus, is thought to have evolved by recombination with the highly identical env gene of the endogenous avian retrovirus EAV-HP. Embryonic expression of EAV-HP env has been suggested to be associated with the induction of immunological tolerance, a feature observed in a significant proportion of meat-type chickens infected with AL...
متن کاملMethods for evaluating and developing commercial chicken strains free of endogenous subgroup E avian leukosis virus.
The genome of nearly all chickens contains various DNA proviral insertions of retroviruses of subgroup E avian leukosis virus (ALVE). However, the elimination or control of ALVE gene expression is desirable to improve productivity, to improve resistance to avian leukosis virus (ALV)-induced tumours, and to develop safer live virus vaccines in chick embryos and cultured chick cells. Restriction ...
