[Origin of the transforming genes in avian acute leukemia retroviruses]
Abstract:
The avian defective leukemia viruses are recombinants between an avian virus of low oncogenicity and specific host nucleotide sequences. The types of hematological neoplasms correlate with the specificity of the sequences transduced. These could be differentiation genes escaping cellular control after their transduction by the virus.
