Replication of transformation-defective mutants of the Prague strain of Rous sarcoma virus and isolation of a td mutant from duck-adapted PR-RSV-C
Abstract
The replication of transformation-defective mutants of the Prague strain of Rous sarcoma virus subgroup C was studied using roller cultures. Under such conditions, 10(5)--10(6) infectous units of virus per 0.2 ml were produced, as revealed in both the reverse transcriptase and 16Q complementation tests. A new td daPR-RSV-C mutant was isolated from duck-adapted PR-RSV-C. This mutant replicated in roller cultures with equal efficiency as the original td PR-RSV-C. It was verified that td daPR-RSV-C does not transform chicken fibroblasts, is not oncogenic for 3-week-old chickens and has subgroup C host-range specificity. Both td mutants replicate in duck cells and reach the same titres.
