TI  - Incomplete proviral genome of mouse mammary tumour virus is present on chromosome 
      Y of NIH Swiss and some genetically related mouse strains.
PG  - 4-8
AB  - An incomplete proviral genome of endogenous mammary tumour virus (MMTV) was found 
      in DNA of several strains of mice. This MMTV-related sequence was assigned to the 
      Y chromosome since it was clearly observed in male mice only. This MMTV provirus 
      contained a sequence related to LTR (long terminal repeat), but not to gag-pol 
      and env genes. NFS, NIH Swiss/S, STS/A, and DD/Tbr mice have this sequence but 
      BALB/cHeA, SHN, SLN, C57BL/6NJcl, C3H/HeNJcl and CBA/JJcl mice are negative. In 
      the strains containing this sequence, a DNA test for the sequence makes it 
      possible to easily distinguish the DNAs of male or female mice.
