Abstract
The endogenous viruses in the avian cells are not completely methylated, nor are the Schmidt-Ruppin RSV-D (SRD) proviruses in the infected cells completely unmethylated. Avian sarcoma proviruses integrated in rat transformed cloned cells are heavily methylated. In these cells, a region in the 3′ end of the env gene is unmethylated in all the src-containing proviruses but not in the transformed defective (td) proviruses. A possible role for the hypomethylation of the 3′ end of the env region is proposed.
