Abstract

Trial of Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) induction by cell fusion with chick embryo cells (CEC) and wing web test from so-called RSV-transformed human cells, KC and RSb cells, was unsuccessful. The loss of RSV inducibility was also confirmed by DNA transfection method. Southern blot and northern blot hybridization of DNA and RNA from those cells with the v-src probe revealed that the v-src genes in those cells were defective and not expressed. On the other hand, the v-src gene in RSV-transformed mouse and rat cells was complete and transforming virus was inducible from them.
