Fig. 5. Label of transformed cells in<br />

vivo by 32P-orthophosphate and pIS<br />

c1eavage. RSV -infected chicken fibroblasts<br />

(A-C), MC 29 nonproductively<br />

infected quail cells (D-F), and<br />

SSV(SSAV)-infected marmoset fibroblasts<br />

(G-I) were labeled with<br />

1 uCi/ml 32P-orthophosphate for 2 h,<br />

lysed, immunoprecipitated (B, D, H),<br />

or subjected to an overnight incubation<br />

at 3rC in presence of pIS (A, E,<br />

G) or without pl5-protease (C, F, I).<br />

The sampies were analysed by<br />

SDS-PAGE followed by autoradiography<br />
