Abstract
IMMUNOELECTRON MICROSCOPY (IEM) OF MOUSE CELLS WHICH WERE PRODUCTIVELY INFECTED WITH MURINE LEUKEMIA VIRUS (MULV) YIELDED THE FOLLOWING CONCLUSIONS: See PDF for Structure With two exceptions, the alloantigens H-2, theta, Ly-A, and Ly-B were not present on complete or incomplete virions produced by cells bearing these antigens.The exceptions were H-2(k) (but not H-2(b)) and theta both appeared on only a minority of virions and never on more than a small part of the circumference. The incidental discovery of an additional envelope antigen on virions produced by a BALB/c mouse myeloma but lacking from passage A Gross virions distinguishes these two viruses as MuLV subtypes; it also illustrates that IEM can be applied as a primary tool for antigenic analysis, as well as for its usual purpose of finding out where antigens are situated.
