  • Title: Nucleotide sequence and formation of the transforming gene of a mouse sarcoma virus.
    Author: Van Beveren C, Galleshaw JA, Jonas V, Berns AJ, Doolittle RF, Donoghue DJ, Verma IM.
    Journal: Nature; 1981 Jan 22; 289(5795):258-62. PubMed ID: 6256659.
    Abstract:
    The complete nucleotide sequence of the transforming gene of a mouse sarcoma virus has been determined. It codes for a protein of 374 amino acids. The nucleotide sequence of the junctions between a murine leukaemia virus and cellular sequences leading to the formation of the viral transforming gene have also been elucidated. The viral transforming sequence and its cellular homologue share an uninterrupted stretch of 1,159 nucleotides, with few base substitutions. The predicted amino acid sequence of the mouse sarcoma virus transforming gene was found to share considerable homology with the proposed amino acid sequence of the avian sarcoma virus oncogene (src) product.
