Comments
This virus produces foci of round cells on MiCL1(Mink S+L-) cell line, and plaques on PG-4 (feline S+L- cell line). This holding consists of persistently infected tk(-)NIH3T3 producer cells that shed the Mo/A-MLV virus.
Amphotropic
Effect on Host
No CPE in NIH3T3 cells
Recommended Host Recommended Host: This virus is continuously produced by the cell line in which it is shipped. No additional host is required; however, if desired the virus may be used to infect other cells, which are listed as alternate hosts.

Alternate Host(s): Many mammalian cell lines (murine, rat, human except certain bovine and hamster cells)
Growth Conditions Incubation: 2 to 7 days at 37°C, a 5% CO2 in air atmosphere is recommended
Effect on Host
No CPE in NIH3T3 cells
Name of Depositor CA Wilson
Source Transfection of tk(-)NIH3T3 cells with molecular clone of MLV derived by A. Dusty Miller
