[Virus-specific proteins in cells transformed by the chicken sarcoma virus D6].

The structural proteins and the oncogene product of the avian sarcoma virus (ASV) D6 were analyzed by the radioimmunoprecipitation. ADV D6 was obtained from the chemically induced tumour. ASV D6 contains all the structural proteins found in RSV, but some of them (p19, gp 85) differ from those of RSV. The product of ASV D6 oncogene is pp65src. The protein kinase activity of this src protein is identical to that of wt pp60src. The nature of some other proteins, which can be phosphorylated in this reaction, is discussed.
