pubmed:abstractText
A new strain of feline sarcoma virus, designated HZ1-FeSV, was isolated from a 4-year-old domestic cat with multicentric fibrosarcoma. A primary tumor cell line was established and virus produced from that line was found to induce foci in feline embryonic lung fibroblasts (FLF3) and mink lung fibroblasts (CCL64) in tissue culture and fibrosarcomas in inoculated 10-week-old kittens. The derivation of transformed nonproducer clones of FLF3 and CCL64 cells containing helper virus-rescuable, focus-forming activity indicated that HZ1-FeSV was defective for replication. The only discernible translation product of the HZ1-FeSV genome in cultured cells was a 100,000-Da polyprotein (P100) which contained amino-terminal sequences of the FeLV gag gene precursor protein covalently linked to a sarcoma virus-specific domain. Immunoprecipitates containing P100 exhibited a protein kinase activity capable of phosphorylating tyrosine residues of P100. Immunologically, P100 was highly cross-reactive with gag-fes polyproteins encoded by two previously characterized strains of FeSV, the GA- and the ST-FeSV. By comparison of methionine-containing tryptic peptides, the HZ1-FeSV protein was shown to be more closely related to the GA-FeSV protein than to the ST-FeSV protein, but to be distinguishable from both other proteins.
