[Initiation of the mouse sarcoma virus oncogene v-K-ras during the chemical treatment of proto-oncogene C-ras]. 1985

E L Andronikashvili

On the basis of the results obtained in the laboratories of Weinberg, Barbacid et al. describing the responsibility of one or another mutation in one of coding triplets of the ras family gene both for chemical and viral cancerogenesis, we draw the conclusion that it is impossible to distinguish these two causes of cancer appearance. It is shown that the cause of mice viral sarcoma v-K ras development from the cellular protooncogene C-ras may consist in the chemical reaction of one of coding triplet nucleotides with cancerogenic substance.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007708 Kirsten murine sarcoma virus A replication-defective murine sarcoma virus (SARCOMA VIRUSES, MURINE) capable of transforming mouse lymphoid cells and producing erythroid leukemia after superinfection with murine leukemia viruses (LEUKEMIA VIRUS, MURINE). It has also been found to transform cultured human fibroblasts, rat liver epithelial cells, and rat adrenocortical cells. Kirsten Sarcoma Virus,Sarcoma Virus, Kirsten,Virus, Kirsten Sarcoma
D009053 Sarcoma Viruses, Murine A group of replication-defective viruses, in the genus GAMMARETROVIRUS, which are capable of transforming cells, but which replicate and produce tumors only in the presence of Murine leukemia viruses (LEUKEMIA VIRUS, MURINE). Finkel-Biskis-Jinkins murine sarcoma virus,Mouse Sarcoma Viruses,FBJ-MSV,FBR-MSV,Finkel-Biskis-Reilly murine sarcoma virus,Finkel Biskis Jinkins murine sarcoma virus,Finkel Biskis Reilly murine sarcoma virus,Murine Sarcoma Viruses,Sarcoma Viruses, Mouse
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
D009857 Oncogenes Genes whose gain-of-function alterations lead to NEOPLASTIC CELL TRANSFORMATION. They include, for example, genes for activators or stimulators of CELL PROLIFERATION such as growth factors, growth factor receptors, protein kinases, signal transducers, nuclear phosphoproteins, and transcription factors. A prefix of "v-" before oncogene symbols indicates oncogenes captured and transmitted by RETROVIRUSES; the prefix "c-" before the gene symbol of an oncogene indicates it is the cellular homolog (PROTO-ONCOGENES) of a v-oncogene.

D002472 Cell Transformation, Viral An inheritable change in cells manifested by changes in cell division and growth and alterations in cell surface properties. It is induced by infection with a transforming virus. Transformation, Viral Cell,Viral Cell Transformation,Cell Transformations, Viral,Transformations, Viral Cell,Viral Cell Transformations

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
