The polypeptides of reticuloendotheliosis virus (REV) were separated by gel filtration in the presence of guanidine hydrochloride. The eight peaks obtained by gel filtration were then analyzed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and four appeared to contain single polypeptides. The material identified as p29 was used to prepare antiserum. This protein constitutes the major internal non-glycosylated polypeptide in the virion. Double immunodiffusion indicated that the antiserum was specific for p29. Using this antiserum, cross-reactivity was demonstrated between REV, chick syncytial virus, duck infectious anemia virus, and spleen necrosis virus. Antiserum to p29 failed to cross-react with Rous sarcoma virus. This indicates that p29 is a group-specific antigen shared by the viruses of the REV complex. A microcomplement fixation test was developed with this antiserum that will be useful in the quantitation of REV and the identification of other members of this newly defined group.

When cultures producing reticuloendotheliosis virus were incubated for 24 h in medium of lowered NaCl concentration, virus production was inhibited. The extent of inhibition increased as the salt concentration of the medium was decreased. The inhibition was rapidly reversed by replacement of low-salt medium with normal medium. During the first hour after the inhibited cultures were returned to normal medium, virus was released at an accelerated rate, making the total amount of virus released by inhibited and control cultures the same. After 1 h in normal medium, the rate of virus production in the previously inhibited cultures was the same as in the control cultures. Incubation of infected cells in low-salt medium resulted in a 60% decrease in the overall rate of protein synthesis. Although returning the cells to normal medium rapidly reversed the inhibition of virus production, it did not rapidly increase the rate of protein synthesis. These results suggest that host cell-directed protein synthesis is preferentially inhibited by the low-ionic-strength medium, whereas that required for virus production continues.

The RNA and polypeptide composition of chick syncytial virus (CSV) and duck infectious anemia virus (DIAV) was investigated and compared to that of reticuloendotheliosis virus (REV) strain T, the prototype of the newly recognized REV group of viruses. CSV and DIAV contain genomic RNA species which cosediment with those of REV in sucrose gradients. Five or six polypeptides, two of which are glycoproteins, were consistently found in CSV and DIAV preparations. The major nonglycosylated polypeptides and glycoproteins of CSV and DIAV comigrated with the corresponding polypeptides of REV strain T. Since the genomic RNA species and the glycoproteins of avian tumor viruses fail to comigrate, this suggests that the REV complex is a more homogeneous group.

The RNA content and polypeptide composition of reticuloendotheliosis virus (REV) was compared to that of C-type RNA tumor viruses. Two RNA species with approximate sedimentation values of 64S and 4S were observed after sucrose gradient centrifugation of RNA extracted from purified REV. The high-molecular-weight RNA species of REV sedimented slightly faster than that of the Bryan strain of Rous sarcoma virus (RSV). Although these characteristics were consistent with those of other C-type RNA tumor viruses, significant differences were observed when the polypeptide composition of REV was compared with that of RSV possessing envelope determinants of Rous-associated virus RAV-2 and RAV-3. Five polypeptides of which two were glycosylated were resolved by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The major nonglycosylated polypeptide of REV did not comigrate with that of RSV (RAV-2)-RSV(RAV-3). The majority of the group-specific antigen reactivity resides in this major nonglycosylated polypeptide of avian tumor viruses and comigrates when proteins of several avian tumor viruses are subjected to coelectrophoresis. This difference in the migration of the major polypeptide of REV and RSV(RAV-2)-RSV(RAV-3) may explain the absence of avian tumor virus group-specific antigen in REV.

Velocity sedimentation and isopycnic density gradient centrifugation indicate that reticuloendotheliosis virus has a different mass and buoyant density than members of the avian tumor virus group. The group-specific antigen of the avian tumor virus group was not detected in concentrated and purified reticuloendotheliosis virus preparations.
