We determined the nucleotide sequences of all coding regions and a significant part of the flanking regions of the chicken c-src gene, which is a cellular homolog of the v-src gene of Rous sarcoma virus. The c-src gene consists of 12 exons; the boundaries of the exons were determined by assuming that the amino acid sequence of its product, pp60c-src, is basically the same as that of pp60v-src. The deduced amino acid sequence of pp60c-src was very similar to that of pp60v-src, but the last 19 carboxy-terminal amino acids of pp60c-src were replaced by a new set of 12 amino acids of pp60v-src. The sequence encoding the carboxy-terminal sequence of pp60v-src was found 900 bp downstream from the termination codon of the c-src gene. We suggest that the c-src sequence was captured by a virus through recombination at both sides of the c-src gene, and that the recombinations occurred at the level of proviral DNA.
