Title: Binding of the BL/VL3 murine T cell lymphoma to radiation leukaemia virus is specific for viral env determinants. Author: O'Neill HC. Journal: J Gen Virol; 1991 Jul; 72 ( Pt 7)():1725-8. PubMed ID: 1856699. Abstract: Molecularly cloned radiation leukaemia viruses (RadLVs) isolated from the BL/VL3 radiation-induced thymoma have been used in assays to compare the binding specificity of the BL/VL3 cell line for different retroviruses. BL/VL3 cells bound well to two of three thymotropic, leukaemogenic viruses produced by this cell line. BL/VL3 did not bind to a cloned fibrotropic, non-leukaemogenic RadLV. BL/VL3 appears to have receptor specificity for only some of the leukaemogenic RadLVs, and this appears to be related to differences in the viral env sequence.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
