Abstract
Ten murine leukemia virus (MuLV)-related DNA sequences were isolated from C3H/HeN mouse genomic DNA by cloning of EcoRI fragments in a Charon 4A vector. Detailed restriction endonuclease maps of four of the clones were developed by using AKR MuLV [32P]cDNA as a probe. C3H clone 14-9 contains approximately 7 kilobase pairs of MuLV-related DNA, one copy of an MuLV long terminal repeat-like sequence, and a region of flanking mouse DNA. C3H clones 34.2 and 36.1 contain approximately 2 kilobase pairs of MuLV-related DNA, one copy of a MuLV LTR-like sequence, and differing lengths of flanking mouse DNA sequences. C3H clone 8.13 was found to contain an insert of 5.7 kilobase pairs of MuLV-related DNA with two long terminal repeat-like regions and sequences which are partially homologous to AKv-1. Comparison fo the restriction endonuclease cleavage maps of these C3H clones with maps recently developed for ecotropic and xenotropic MuLV DNAs indicates that C3H clone 14-9 corresponds to the 5'-terminal portion of a genomic DNA sequence related to xenotropic MuLVs, whereas C3H clones 34.2 and 36.1 correspond to the 3' terminal portions of genomic DNA sequences related to xenotropic MuLVs. Clone 8.13 represents a deleted, xenotropic MuLV-related provirus. C3H clones 14-9, 34.2, 36.1, and 8.13 provide defined DNA sequence probes with which to characterize the organization and expression of endogenous MuLV-related DNA sequences in the mouse genome.
