Among 18 thymic leukemia cell lines which have been established from spontaneous thymic lymphomas in AKR mice as well as in bone marrow chimeras which were constructed by transplanting allogeneic bone marrow cells into irradiated AKR mice, three proviral integration sites were identified; near c-myc, N-myc and pim-1 loci. No integration site specific for chimeric leukemia cell lines was found. In three thymic leukemia cell lines which contained rearranged N-myc genes, insertions of long terminal repeats (LTRs) of murine leukemia viruses were detected at 18 or 20 bp downstream of the translational termination codon. These results demonstrate that the 3' region of the N-myc gene is one of the integration targets for murine leukemia viruses in spontaneous thymic lymphomas. In these three cell lines, N-myc mRNA was stably transcribed and transcription of c-myc mRNA was down-regulated. The integrated murine leukemia viruses in AKR thymic leukemia were most likely AKV, though the DNA sequence of the LTR inserted in the genome of a leukemic cell line from [(BALB/c x B6)F1----AKR], CAK20, was different from LTRs of murine leukemia viruses so far reported.

D008969 Molecular Sequence Data Descriptions of specific amino acid, carbohydrate, or nucleotide sequences which have appeared in the published literature and/or are deposited in and maintained by databanks such as GENBANK, European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL), National Biomedical Research Foundation (NBRF), or other sequence repositories. Sequence Data, Molecular,Molecular Sequencing Data,Data, Molecular Sequence,Data, Molecular Sequencing,Sequencing Data, Molecular
D011533 Proviruses Duplex DNA sequences in eukaryotic chromosomes, corresponding to the genome of a virus, that are transmitted from one cell generation to the next without causing lysis of the host. Proviruses are often associated with neoplastic cell transformation and are key features of retrovirus biology. Provirus
D002460 Cell Line Established cell cultures that have the potential to propagate indefinitely. Cell Lines,Line, Cell,Lines, Cell
D002678 Chimera An individual that contains cell populations derived from different zygotes. Hybrids,Chimeras,Hybrid
D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).

D012333 RNA, Messenger RNA sequences that serve as templates for protein synthesis. Bacterial mRNAs are generally primary transcripts in that they do not require post-transcriptional processing. Eukaryotic mRNA is synthesized in the nucleus and must be exported to the cytoplasm for translation. Most eukaryotic mRNAs have a sequence of polyadenylic acid at the 3' end, referred to as the poly(A) tail. The function of this tail is not known for certain, but it may play a role in the export of mature mRNA from the nucleus as well as in helping stabilize some mRNA molecules by retarding their degradation in the cytoplasm.

D012689 Sequence Homology, Nucleic Acid The sequential correspondence of nucleotides in one nucleic acid molecule with those of another nucleic acid molecule. Sequence homology is an indication of the genetic relatedness of different organisms and gene function.
