## Abstract Stable integration of polyoma viral DNA into the hostβcell genome is a prerequisite for continuous expression of the transformed phenotype. In this study we have mapped the chromosomal location of integrated viral DNA sequences in a polyomaβinduced mouse salivary gland adenocarcinoma. B
The molecular etiology of retrovirally induced T-cell tumors has been shown in many cases to involve proviral integration near a cellular oncogene, c-myc, N-myc, P i m I and pvt-I being frequent targets for insertional activation. Murine B-cell tumors induced by infection with murine leukemia virus
