Abstract excerpt
ts1 is a temperature-sensitive mutant of Moloney murine leukemia virus that causes hind-limb paralysis in mice. In tissues of the central nervous systems of paralyzed moribund FVB/N mice, a major component of the unintegrated viral DNA of ts1 consists of highly mobile physical forms of viral-spec...
