Stammar av musleukemivirus som upptäcktes 1976 av Hartley, Wolford, Old och Rowe och fick sitt namn pga sin förmåga att omvandla cellhärdar i minkcellkulturer.MCF-virus alstras genom rekombination med ekotropa musleukemivirus, inkl. AKR, Friend, Moloney och Rauscher, och ger upphov till erytroleukemi och svår anemi hos möss.
Strains of MURINE LEUKEMIA VIRUS discovered in 1976 by Hartley, Wolford, Old, and Rowe and so named because the viruses originally isolated had the capacity to transform cell foci in mink cell cultures. MCF viruses are generated by recombination with ecotropic murine leukemia viruses including AKR, Friend, Moloney, and Rauscher, causing ERYTHROLEUKEMIA and severe anemia in mice.
