The FBJ murine osteosarcoma virus (FBJ-MuSV) induces osteosarcomas in mice and transforms fibroblasts in vitro. It contains an oncogene termed vfos derived from a normal cellular gene by recombination with an associated helper virus. The product of the v-fos gene is a 55,000 dalton protein,~ 55”‘““. This protein was found in the nuclei of cells containing amplified levels of the v-fos gene, and also in the nuclei of virus-transformed cells. The c-fos protein was localized in the nuclei of normal mouse amnion cells and in the nuclei of cells transformed by a recombinant plasmid that expresses the c-fos gene product. However,~ 55”‘OS undergoes more extensive post-translational modification in the nucleus than p55”.‘““. lmmunofluorescence data indicate that the level of~ 55”‘“” in normal mouse amnion cells is similar to that found in fibroblasts transformed by the v-fos or c-fos proteins.
