The mouse homolog of the Gibbon ape leukemia virus (GALV) receptor (Glvr-1) was mapped to mouse Chromosome 2 (Chr 2) by Southern blot analysis of somatic cell hybrids and positioned on this chromosome using an interspecies genetic cross. Mouse Chr 2 also encodes a receptor (Rec-2) for the wild mouse virus M813. To investigate whether Glvr-1 and Rec-2 could be the same gene, we sought evidence for sequence homology between the env- genes of their respective viruses. Southern blot hybridization with GALV-derived env and pol-env probes failed to detect any homology between GALV and M813, but did show that all mouse species tested carry numerous copies of GALV-related sequences. We speculate that a functional receptor for GALV-related viruses was expressed during Mus evolution.
通过对体细胞杂种进行Southern印迹分析,将长臂猿白血病病毒(GALV)受体(Glvr-1)的小鼠同源物定位到小鼠2号染色体(Chr 2)上,并利用种间遗传杂交将其定位在该染色体上。小鼠Chr 2还编码野生小鼠病毒M813的受体(Rec-2)。为了研究Glvr-1和Rec-2是否可能是同一基因,我们寻找了它们各自病毒的env基因之间序列同源性的证据。用GALV衍生的env和pol-env探针进行Southern印迹杂交未能检测到GALV和M813之间的任何同源性,但确实表明所有测试的小鼠物种都携带大量GALV相关序列的拷贝。我们推测在小家鼠进化过程中表达了一种GALV相关病毒的功能性受体。
