摘要:Nucleic acid sequences homologous to a [3H]DNA transcript prepared from an endogenous baboon type C virus are readily detected in both the cellular DNA and RNA of several different Old World monkeys. Competitive radioimmunoassays for the major viral protein (p30) of baboon type C viruses detect viral antigen in a normal stumptail spleen and a rhesus ovarian carcinoma. The p30 antigen from these tissues is closely related by several immunologic criteria to the p30 protein of baboon type C viruses. The results indicate that normal primate tissues transcribe endogenous viral-specific RNA and translate at least one viral structural protein.
