    Abstract:
    In the course of analyzing sites of proviral integration in tumors induced by mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV), we have isolated recombinant DNA clones corresponding to the 5' and 3' ends of four endogenous MMTV proviruses present in BALB/c and BR6 mice. This has permitted the structural characterization of each locus by detailed restriction mapping and the preparation of DNA probes specific for the cellular sequences flanking each provirus. These probes have been used to trace the segregation patterns of the proviruses, designated Mtv-8, Mtv-9, Mtv-17, and Mtv-21, in a panel of inbred strains of laboratory mice and to map Mtv-17 and Mtv-21 to mouse chromosomes 4 and 8, respectively. The unambiguous resolution of these four proviruses on Southern blots has greatly facilitated the analysis of other endogenous MMTV proviruses in these inbred mice.
