Comparison of murine sarcoma viruses in nonproducer and S + L - -transformed cells
Abstract
The biologic properties of murine sarcoma viruses in nonproducer and S(+)L(-) cells were compared. Each virus was found to be genetically stable through at least two cycles of rescue and transmission to new cells. There was no evidence for production of a defective murine leukemia virus by S(+)L(-) cells. The results are most consistent with the hypothesis that the sarcoma genome in S(+)L(-) cells contains information for replication functions which the virus in nonproducer cells either lacks or does not express.
