Abstract excerpt
Six deletion mutations and an insertion were generated in the env gene of cloned copies of Moloney murine leukemia virus DNA. All seven mutants were replication-defective as tested by transformation of NIH/3T3 cells. The mutant DNAs were introduced into NIH/3T3 cells to generate stable producer lines; all released virion particles into the medium, suggesting that none of the mutations affected overall viral gene...
