## Abstract Mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV) has long been known as a causal agent of breast cancer in mice. To date, varied MMTVβlike envelope gene (__env__) sequences have been identified in up to 74% of human breast cancers. However, the role and origin of these MMTVβlike sequences in human brea
## Abstract The authors have found that retroviral sequences with 85% to 95% homology to the mouse mammary tumor virus were present in 40% of the sporadic breast cancers of American women. These sequences were not found in normal breasts or other tumors. A whole proviral structure was detected in 2
