Visualization of the integration site identified on Chr 8. A Visualization of NGS reads detected on IGV profile. B Schematic diagram to detect both Chr 8/BLV-3′LTR chimeric fragment and BLV-5′LTR/Chr 8 chimeric fragment. Arrows indicate the position of primers. C Confirmation of Chr 8/BLV- 3′LTR chimeric fragment using conventional PCR and Sanger sequence. Arrow indicates the PCR product of the Chr 8/BLV-3′LTR chimeric fragment. M, 100 bp DNA Ladder marker (MIXELL Inc, Tokyo, Japan); 1, Stage I; 2, Stage II; 3, Stage III; C, no-template DNA-negative control (water substituted for DNA template). Six nucleotides duplication of host sequence (GAATTT) was detected by Sanger sequence. D Confirmation of BLV-5′LTR/Chr 8 chimeric fragment using conventional PCR and Sanger sequence. Arrow indicates the PCR product of the BLV- 5′LTR/Chr 8 chimeric fragment. M, 100 bp DNA Ladder marker (MIXELL Inc, Tokyo, Japan); 1, Stage I; 2, Stage II; 3, Stage III; C, no-template DNA-negative control (water substituted for DNA template). 6 nucleotides duplication of host sequence (GAATTT) colored in red was detected by Sanger sequence
