Membrane changes in virus transformed cells.

L Montagnier, G Torpier

    Bulletin Du Cancer
    |January 1, 1976
    PubMed
    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Oncogenic viruses cause cell membrane changes, particularly in the hydrophobic region. These alterations may stem from primary events within membrane proteins, affecting cell surface characteristics.

    Area of Science:

    • Cell Biology
    • Virology
    • Biochemistry

    Background:

    • Oncogenic viruses induce significant alterations in host cell membranes.
    • Understanding these membrane changes is crucial for cancer research.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe and discuss membrane alterations in virus-transformed cells.
    • To emphasize recent findings in the hydrophobic portion of the plasma membrane.

    Main Methods:

    • Freeze-etching technique to examine plasma membrane structure.
    • Comparative analysis of normal and transformed cell membranes.

    Main Results:

    • Observed distinct changes in the hydrophobic region of plasma membranes in transformed cells.
    • Identified alterations in membrane protein distribution and structure.
