Abstract
Normal human tissues contained RNA which hybridizes with 4 regions of the adenovirus type 2 genome, including 1 which contains the transforming gene(s) of this virus. The RNA were also extracted from gorilla organs, but not from those of chickens, suggesting that they are a feature of all normal higher primate tissues. Serological tests suggest that these homologous RNA are translated into proteins connected with essentially normal and virus-infected cell functions.This publication has 28 references indexed in Scilit:
