Protease-mediated maturation of M-PMV reverse transcriptase into a functional heterodimer. [PDF]
Abstract Reverse transcriptase (RT) of retroviruses orchestrates viral replication, yet its structural diversity remains poorly understood. Well‐studied RTs, such as those from HIV‐1, murine leukemia virus, and avian myeloblastosis virus, were characterized decades ago, but less prominent retroviruses have escaped detailed analysis.

Avian myeloblastosis virus proteins in leukemic chicken myeloblasts [PDF]
We have analyzed the avian myeloblastosis virus proteins in two types of leukemic myeloblasts: established myeloblastic cell lines (DU 1765 and DU 11157) and leukemic myeloblasts obtained from the peripheral blood of a leukemic C/E Spafas chicken (no. 21957). Using monospecific antisera for immunoprecipitation and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, we

In vitro translation of avian myeloblastosis virus RNA [PDF]
Avian myeloblastosis virus (AMV)-infected cells contain two viral mRNA's, a genome-sized 34S (7.5-kilobase) mRNA and a 21S (2.5-kilobase) subgenomic mRNA, which contains the AMV-specific sequences (myb sequences). We found that AMV virions packaged both the 7.5-kilobase full-length genomic RNA and the 2.5-kilobase subgenomic RNA.

Avian myeoloblastosis virus (AMV): only one side of the coin
For many years, scientists and suppliers have refered to AMV-RT as the reverse transcriptase produced by the Avian Myelobalstosis Virus. This manuscript briefly reviews the molecular basis for biological dependence of AMV for the envelope and RT proteins

Avian myeloblastosis virus-induced lymphosarcoma producing erythroblastic leucosis in chicks [PDF]
Acute myeloblastosis and several forms of tumor, including one case of lymphosarcoma occurred when avian myeloblastosis virus (BAI-A strain) was inoculated into newly hatched chicks (SPF). The homogenate of lymphosarcoma inoculated intraperitoneally into

Methionine Transfer Ribonucleic Acids of Avian Myeloblastosis Virus [PDF]
Chick-embryo cells contain four isoaccepting species of methionine transfer RNA (I-IV). One species (I) is the initiator, tRNA f Met , and the others (II, III, and IV) are the donors of internal methionyl residues (tRNA m Met

Viral reverse transcriptases show selective high affinity binding to DNA-DNA primer-templates that resemble the polypurine tract. [PDF]
Previous results using a SELEX (Systematic Evolution of Ligands by Exponential Enrichment)-based approach that selected DNA primer-template duplexes binding with high affinity to HIV reverse transcriptase (RT) showed that primers mimicking the 3' end ...

Development of a Tet-On Inducible Expression System for the Anhydrobiotic Cell Line, Pv11
The Pv11 cell line established from an African chironomid, Polypedilum vanderplanki, is the only cell line tolerant to complete desiccation. In Pv11 cells, a constitutive expression system for Pv11 cells was previously exploited and several reporter ...

Search for virus specific DNA sequences and viral particles in mitochondria of avian leukemic myeloblasts [PDF]
The intracellular localization of the avian myeloblastosis virus (AMV) genome was studied. Nuclear and mitochondrial DNAs from myeloblasts were examined by hybridization with 32P labeled AMV-RNA of high molecular weight for the presence of virus specific
