Ca. Wilson et al., THE DUAL-FUNCTION HAMSTER RECEPTOR FOR AMPHOTROPIC MURINE LEUKEMIA-VIRUS (MULV), 10A1 MULV, AND GIBBON APE LEUKEMIA-VIRUS IS A PHOSPHATE SYMPORTER, Journal of virology, 69(1), 1995, pp. 534-537
Previously, we showed that the amphotropic receptor homolog in hamster
cells functions as a receptor not only for amphotropic murine leukemi
a viruses and 10A1 murine leukemia virus but also for gibbon ape leuke
mia virus (C. A. Wilson, K. B. Farrell, and M. V. Eiden, J. Virol. 68:
7697-7703, 1994). Here, we demonstrate that this receptor functions as
a sodium-dependent Pi transporter and that Na-P, uptake can be specif
ically blocked following infection with either amphotropic murine leuk
emia virus, 10A1 murine leukemia virus, or gibbon ape leukemia virus.
