A number of mutants of polyomavirus middle T antigen (MTag) were constructed into replication-competent avian retroviruses. To assess the ability of these MTag variants to transform and to associate with the avian p60c-src and p62c-yes proto-oncogene products, we used these viruses to infect chicken embryo fibroblasts. We found that the ability of individual mutant MTags to associate with p62c-yes correlated well with the ability of these mutants to transform, as has been previously shown for the association of MTag with p60c-src. All transformation-competent mutant MTags retained the ability to complex with p62c-yes. Two transformation-defective mutants, RX67 and RX68, which could weakly associate with p60c-src, were unable to associate with p62c-yes.dl1015, a transformation-defective mutant which could associate with p60c-src and with a phosphatidylinositol kinase activity, was also able to associate with p62c-yes. Therefore, some as yet unmeasured biochemical property is defective in this mutant.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D009154	Mutation	Any detectable and heritable change in the genetic material that causes a change in the GENOTYPE and which is transmitted to daughter cells and to succeeding generations.	Mutations
D010957	Plasmids	Extrachromosomal, usually CIRCULAR DNA molecules that are self-replicating and transferable from one organism to another. They are found in a variety of bacterial, archaeal, fungal, algal, and plant species. They are used in GENETIC ENGINEERING as CLONING VECTORS.	Episomes,Episome,Plasmid
D011120	Polyomavirus	A genus of potentially oncogenic viruses of the family POLYOMAVIRIDAE. These viruses are normally present in their natural hosts as latent infections. The virus is oncogenic in hosts different from the species of origin.

D011518	Proto-Oncogene Proteins	Products of proto-oncogenes. Normally they do not have oncogenic or transforming properties, but are involved in the regulation or differentiation of cell growth. They often have protein kinase activity.
