    • Production of a Natural Antibody to the Mouse Polyoma Virus Is a Multigenic Trait 

      Andrews, Erik; Velupillai, Palanivel; Sung, Chang Kyoo; Beier, David Randolph; Benjamin, Thomas L. (Genetics Society of America, 2012)
      MA/MyJ mice express a natural antibody to the highly oncogenic polyoma virus. C57BR/cdJ mice lack this antibody but mount an adaptive T-cell response to the virus. Analysis of F2 progeny of a cross between these strains ...
    • Receptor-Binding and Oncogenic Properties of Polyoma Viruses Isolated from Feral Mice 

      Carroll, John; Dey, Dilip; Kreisman, Lori; Velupillai, Palanivel; Dahl, Jean Stokes; Telford, Samuel; Bronson, Roderick Terry; Benjamin, Thomas L. (Public Library of Science, 2007)
      Laboratory strains of the mouse polyoma virus differ markedly in their abilities to replicate and induce tumors in newborn mice. Major determinants of pathogenicity lie in the sialic binding pocket of the major capsid ...
