Gammaretrovirus mRNA expression is mediated by a novel, bipartite post-transcriptional regulatory element [PDF]
Post-transcriptional regulatory mechanisms of several complex and simple retroviruses and retroelements have been elucidated, with the exception of the gammaretrovirus family.

Naturally Occurring Polymorphisms of the Mouse Gammaretrovirus Receptors CAT-1 and XPR1 Alter Virus Tropism and Pathogenicity [PDF]
Gammaretroviruses of several different host range subgroups have been isolated from laboratory mice. The ecotropic viruses infect mouse cells and rely on the host CAT-1 receptor.

Partial molecular cloning of the JHK retrovirus using gammaretrovirus consensus PCR primers. [PDF]
The JHK virus (JHKV) was previously described as a type C retrovirus that has some distinctive ultrastructural features and replicates constitutively in a human B-lymphoblastoid cell line, JHK-3. In order to facilitate the cloning of sequences from JHKV,

Gammaretrovirus-mediated correction of SCID-X1 is associated with skewed vector integration site distribution in vivo. [PDF]
We treated 10 children with X-linked SCID (SCID-X1) using gammaretrovirus-mediated gene transfer. Those with sufficient follow-up were found to have recovered substantial immunity in the absence of any serious adverse events up to 5 years after treatment.

Background The recent report of gammaretroviruses of probable murine origin in humans, called xenotropic murine retrovirus related virus (XMRV) and human murine leukemia virus related virus (HMRV), necessitated a bioinformatic search for this virus in ...

Molecular Characterization of a Novel Gammaretrovirus in Killer Whales (Orcinus orca) [PDF]
ABSTRACT There are currently no published data documenting the presence of retroviruses in cetaceans, though the occurrences of cancers and immunodeficiency states suggest the potential. We examined tissues from adult killer whales and detected a novel gammaretrovirus by degenerate PCR. Reverse transcription-PCR also demonstrated

Immunisation with the membrane proximal external region of gp41 of HIV-1 grafted into the transmembrane envelope protein of a gammaretrovirus [PDF]
Background Immunisation with the transmembrane envelope (TM) proteins p15E of different gammaretroviruses (e.g., porcine endogenous retrovirus, feline leukaemia virus, Koala retrovirus) resulted in strong neutralising activity, the antibodies recognised ...

Most viruses infect only a few hosts, but the xenotropic and polytropic mouse leukemia viruses (X/P-MLVs) are broadly infectious in mammalian species. X/P-MLVs use the XPR1 receptor for cell entry, and tropism differences are due to polymorphisms in XPR1 and the viral envelope.
