Presence of ribonucleotide sequences complementary to Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) RNA in chicken cells infected with RSV.
RNA--RNA molecular hybridization between [125I] RNA from Rous sarcoma virus virions and RNAs isolated from various subcellular fractions, i.e. nuclei, mitochondria, free and membrane-bound polyribosomes, from tumors induced by RSV in chickens resulted in the formation of RNAase-resistant hybrids only with the RNA of mitochondria and membrane-bound polysomes. The origin of complementary regions in the RNAs from these organelles is discussed.
