We screened a recombinant chicken DNA/lambda phage library for sequences homologous to the transformation-specific sequences of the avian acute leukemia virus MC29 by hybridization with molecularly cloned MC29 proviral DNA. Three cellular DNA clones were found and compared with each other and with the viral genome by physical mapping with restriction endonucleases and by heteroduplex analysis. These experiments indicated that the three cellular clones overlap and represent a single cellular locus. The RNA genome of MC29 and normal cell DNA share a homologous region of 1.6 kilobases which is interrupted in the cellular DNA by 1.0 kilobase of sequences not present in the viral genome. Hybridization of the cloned cellular DNA to viral RNA and analysis of the protected viral RNA by fingerprinting techniques indicated that there is extensive sequence homology between the helper virus-unrelated mcv sequences of the viral RNA and the cellular DNA, with only minor base differences. The cellular mcv locus, however, lacks all helper virus-related sequences of MC29, including those of the partial viral gag gene which, together with mcv, encodes the probable transforming protein of MC29. We conclude that although the mcv locus of the normal cell does not represent a complete structural homolog to the onc gene of MC29, it is probably the precursor to the onc-specific sequence in the virus.
