Isolation of temperature-sensitive mutants of murine sarcoma virus.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Three separate murine sarcoma virus nonproducer cell lines have been isolated which are temperature sensitive for the maintenance of transformation. In each case, a viral rather than a cellular genetic mutation is the reason for the temperature-sensitive effect. Superinfection of one of the mutants with murine leukemia virus overcomes the temperature-sensitive change in the transformed state.

Action of temperature-sensitive mutants of myeloproliferative sarcoma virus suggests that fibroblast-transforming and hematopoietic transforming viral properties are related.
The myeloproliferative sarcoma virus is molecularly related to the Moloney sarcoma virus (Pragnell et al., J. Virol. 38:952-957, 1981), but causes both fibroblast transformation in vitro and leukemic changes--including spleen focus formation--in adult mice. The fibroblast transforming properties of myeloproliferative sarcoma virus were used to select viral temperature-sensitive mutants at 39.5 ...
متن کاملProtease bypass of temperature-sensitive murine leukemia virus maturation mutants.
Cells infected with certain temperature-sensitive mutants of Moloney murine leukemia virus synthesize the virion precursor proteins but neither bud virions nor cleave precursor proteins to their mature form. Addition of proteases to cells infected with these mutants caused cleavage of the precursor proteins Pr65gag and Pr180gag-pol to their mature forms at the nonpermissive temperature. Concomi...
متن کاملCooperative transformation studies with temperature-sensitive mutants of Rous sarcoma virus.
Stocks of Rous sarcoma virus Bryan strain were mutagenized using a bromodeoxyuridine treatment immediately after infection. Thirty temperature-sensitive (ts) mutants defective in transformation (td) were isolated by a replica plating technique. Twenty of these mutants were preliminarily characterized and found to be defective in late functions related to transformation. These mutants were used ...
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of Sendai virus temperature-sensitive mutants.
Ten temperature-sensitive mutants of Sendai virus, a paramyxovirus, were isolated and partially characterized. The mutants replicated in chicken embryo lung cells at 30 C, but not at 38 C; wild-type virus grew equally well at both temperatures. Complementation tests divided the mutants into seven groups. Six groups synthesized neither infectious virus nor RNA when incubated at 38 C from the beg...
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of temperature-sensitive mutants of vesicular stomatitis virus, New Jersey serotype.
Forty-eight temperature-sensitive (ts) mutants have been isolated from a wild-type strain of the New Jersey serotype of vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) after exposure to the base analogue mutagen 5-fluorouracil. Of these mutants, 47 have been classified into 6 nonoverlapping complementation groups containing 21, 17, 4, 3, 2, and 1 mutant, respectively (1 mutant remaining unallocated). The ribo...
