Molecular cloning of murine endogenous viral sequences and expression of a newly constructed recombinant murine leukemia virus DNA in transfected mink cells.

abstract：:Antibodies that modulate receptor function have great untapped potential in the control of stem cell differentiation. In contrast to many natural ligands, antibodies are stable, exquisitely specific, and are unaffected by the regulatory mechanisms that act on natural ligands. Here we describe an innovative system for ...
