[Identification of virus-specific RNA in cells infected with the bovine leukemia virus by nucleic acid hybridization in situ]. 1987

D A Brashishkite, and F L Kiselev

Virus-specific RNA was detected in FLK cells producing bovine leukemia virus (BLV) by cDNA hybridization in situ. For calculation of the virus-specific RNA copy number in infected cells hybridization of 3H-cDNA BLV with the total cellular RNA in solution was used. FLK cells contain approximately 600 copies of virus-specific RNA per cell. Individual FLK cells producing BLV were identified by hybridization in situ. A successful identification of viral RNA in cells by hybridization in situ is possible if cells contain more than 100 copies of viral transcripts.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D009693 Nucleic Acid Hybridization Widely used technique which exploits the ability of complementary sequences in single-stranded DNAs or RNAs to pair with each other to form a double helix. Hybridization can take place between two complimentary DNA sequences, between a single-stranded DNA and a complementary RNA, or between two RNA sequences. The technique is used to detect and isolate specific sequences, measure homology, or define other characteristics of one or both strands.

D001345 Autoradiography The making of a radiograph of an object or tissue by recording on a photographic plate the radiation emitted by radioactive material within the object. (Dorland, 27th ed) Radioautography
D012190 Retroviridae Family of RNA viruses that infects birds and mammals and encodes the enzyme reverse transcriptase. The family contains seven genera: DELTARETROVIRUS; LENTIVIRUS; RETROVIRUSES TYPE B, MAMMALIAN; ALPHARETROVIRUS; GAMMARETROVIRUS; RETROVIRUSES TYPE D; and SPUMAVIRUS. A key feature of retrovirus biology is the synthesis of a DNA copy of the genome which is integrated into cellular DNA. After integration it is sometimes not expressed but maintained in a latent state (PROVIRUSES).
