“…Tumour tissue contains one to four BLV proviral copies per genome, at very few sites (Kettmann et al, 1979(Kettmann et al, , 1980Onuma et al, 1982), and at a large number of sites in a quarter to a third of circulating leukocytes (Kettmann et al, 1980). There is no evidence of a preferential integration site for the provirus (Kettmann et al, 1983 ;Gregoire et al, 1984), thus diminishing the possibility of BLV exerting its transforming effect by downstream promotion of a particular proximal cellular sequence.…”
