Figure 2From: Role of receptor polymorphism and glycosylation in syncytium induction and host range variation of ecotropic mouse gammaretrovirusesCytopathic effects of virus infection on two cell lines, MA139 and MDCK cells, transfected with mCAT-1 or dCAT-1. Transfected MA139 cells are shown in the four panels on the left, transfected MDCK cells on the right. To the left are indicated which transfected CAT-1 gene is expressed and which cells are MLV infected. Cultures were photographed 3 days after one of two plates of each transfected cell was infected with F-S MLV. Panels show representative fields of cultures infected with undiluted virus stock. Objective lens magnification was 20× for the MA139 cells and 40× for the MDCK cells.Back to article page
