Murine retroviral restriction genes Fv-4 and Akvr-1 are alleles of a single locus.

چکیده
The two murine retroviral restriction genes, Fv-4 and Akvr-1, are very similar in their effects, distributions, ranges of action, and phenotypes. Akvr-1 has been shown to segregate independently in backcrosses with a variety of retroviral restriction loci, including Fv-1, Fv-2, Ril-1, and Ril-2. An allelism test cross of FRG (Fv-4R) X LCRR (Akvr-1R) hybrids mated to AKR mice failed to produce any viremic offspring. These results suggested that Akvr-1R and Fv-4R are alleles of a single locus, Fv-4, on mouse chromosome 12.

Akvr-1, a dominant murine leukemia virus restriction gene, is polymorphic in leukemia-prone wild mice.
We describe a restriction gene (Akvr-1, for AKR virus restriction) that is polymorphic for two alleles, Akvr-1R (restrictive) and Akvr-1r (susceptible), in a feral population of mice (Mus) musculus domesticus) at a squab farm near Lake Casitas (LC) in southern California. Akvr-1k is a dominant allele that exhibits 100% penetrance in prevention of viremia of AKR endogenous retrovirus and of viru...
متن کاملMolecular characterization of Theileria parva parasites from South Sudan using the PCR-RFLP approach on antigen genes
In an attempt to characterize Theileria parva parasites circulating in South Sudan cattle , polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based assays were carried out using four single copy encoding antigen genes p104, PIM, p150 and p67 in addition to one microsatellite MS321. A total of 20 bovine DNA samples from two locations in South Sudan were included in this study, in addition to two references stra...
متن کاملFv-1 restriction and its effects on murine leukemia virus integration in vivo and in vitro.
We have investigated the mechanisms by which alleles at the mouse Fv-1 locus restrict replication of murine leukemia viruses. Inhibition of productive infection is closely paralleled by reduced accumulation of integrated proviral DNA as well as by reduced levels of linear viral DNA in a cytoplasmic fraction. Nevertheless, viral DNA is present at nearly normal levels in a nuclear fraction, and t...
متن کاملGenetic Polymorphism at MTNR1A, CAST and CAPN Loci in Iranian Karakul Sheep
Genotypes for melatonin receptor type 1A (MTNR1A) and Calpastatin (CAST) were determined by enzymatic digestion of PCR products and Calpain(CAPN) genotype detected by PCR-SSCP method in Iranian Karakul sheep. Blood samples were collected from 100 purebred Karakul sheep. The extraction of genomic DNA was based on guanidinium thiocyanate- silica gel method. PCR amplicons were digested with restri...
متن کاملAbelson virus-induced lymphomagenesis in mice
The salient facts which have emerged from our study of Abelson virus (MuLV-A)lymphomagenesis in mice are that lymphoma induction is (a) age dependent, (b) virus dose dependent, and (c) under the control of host genes unrelated to other genes known to control murine leukemia (e.g., Fv-1 on Fv-2). Of 16 strains tested, only BALB/c and some of its derivative strains showed high sensitivity. Studie...
