TI  - A novel endogenous mouse mammary tumor virus locus in Asian wild mice and its 
      evolutionary divergency.

AB  - The divergency of endogenous mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV) in European mouse 
      strains indicates acquisition of exogenous MMTV into their genomes during 
      evolution. In the present study, we selected two strains of Asian wild mice, 
      Cas-Hmi (Mus musculus castaneus) and Sub-Kjr (M. m. subspecies) to investigate a 
      possible divergency of endogenous MMTVs among Asian mouse strains. Southern blot 
      analysis and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) demonstrated that Cas-Hmi and 
      Sub-Kjr have the full structure of integrated endogenous MMTVs, suggesting that 
      these mice were diverged during evolution after MMTV endemics.
