Analysis of wild-derived mice for Fv-1 and Fv-2 murine leukemia virus restriction loci: a novel wild mouse Fv-1 allele responsible for lack of host range restriction.

C A Kozak

ABSTRACT

Wild-derived mice originally obtained from Asia, Africa, North America, and Europe were typed for in vitro sensitivity to ecotropic murine leukemia viruses and for susceptibility to Friend virus-induced disease. Cell cultures established from some wild mouse populations were generally less sensitive to exogenous virus than were cell cultures from laboratory mice. Wild mice also differed from inbred strains in their in vitro sensitivity to the host range subgroups defined by restriction at the Fv-1 locus. None of the wild mice showed the Fv-1n or Fv-1b restriction patterns characteristic of most inbred strains, several mice resembled the few inbred strains carrying Fv-1nr, and most differed from laboratory mice in that they did not restrict either N- or B-tropic murine leukemia viruses. Analysis of genetic crosses of Mus spretus and Mus musculus praetextus demonstrated that the nonrestrictive phenotype is controlled by a novel allele at the Fv-1 locus, designated Fv-10. The wild mice were also tested for sensitivity to Friend virus complex-induced erythroblastosis to type for Fv-2. Only M. spretus was resistant to virus-induced splenomegaly and did not restrict replication of Friend virus helper murine leukemia virus. Genetic studies confirmed that this mouse carries the resistance allele at Fv-2.
