| Abstract: | The data are presented on the activation of endogenous retrovirus in vaccinia virus--malignant transformed cells of rat tissue culture. Infection of the cells by Mazurenko mouse leukemia virus induced rat sarcoma virus. The latter was formed as a result of recombination of sarcoma virus-specific sequences received from the rat cells malignantly transformed by vaccinia virus and virus-helper (Mazurenko mouse leukemia virus). |
