Abstract:
By combining the polymerase chain reaction and differential library screening, a cDNA for an mRNA expressed in chicken avian myeloblastosis virus (AMV)-transformed monoblasts was isolated. This mRNA is not expressed in erythroblast or T-lymphoblast cell lines. Induced differentiation of the cells of the AMV-transformed BM2 line was associated with reduced levels of this transcript. The predicted protein product of Chox M was a homeodomain factor similar to murine Hox-4.3.
