The pattern of integration for the infectious DNA of 2 avian reticuloendotheliosis viruses whose DNA is not inactivated by digestion with the restriction endonuclease, Eco RI, was determined. High MW DNA from infected chicken, turkey and pheasant cells was digested with Eco RI, electrophoresed through agarose gels and assayed for infectivity. The same patterns of integration of infectious viral DNA were found for these species of avian cells infected at high or low multiplicities with 2 reticuloendotheliosis viruses. There were multiple sites of integration in acutely infected cells with concomitant cell death. There was a single site of integration in chronically infected cells with no cell death. There were more integrated infectious viral DNA molecules per cell in acutely infected cells than in chronically infected cells. Apparently, the cell death in the acute phase of infection is a result of the integration of the infectious viral DNA at multiple sites, and only those cells survive that have the infectious viral DNA integrated exclusively at the single site.
