The genetics of transformation by SV 40. 1983

J Feunteun, and C A Petit

Experiments using the tsA 58 allele of the SV 40-A gene have demonstrated that the SV 40 large T-antigen is strictly required both for immortalization and induction anchorage independence of cells. It has been suggested that the immortalized phenotype is mediated by an extra cellular factor. The synthesis and/or the excretion of this factor in a medium is controlled by the A gene.

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.
