RESUMO

A retroviral insertion into the c-myb gene, which resulted in a 3' truncation, was found in an in vitro-derived myeloid cell line. The retroviral insertion occurred at precisely the same nucleotide at which another murine leukemia virus insertion occurred in an in vivo-induced myeloid leukemia. These findings suggest that comparable events may be required for the derivation of myeloid cell lines in vitro and for induction of myeloid leukemia in vivo.
