We present the nucleotide sequence of the coding region of the rat c-rasH-1 gene and a partial sequence analysis of the rat c-rasH-2 gene. By comparing these sequences with the Harvey murine sarcoma virus ras gene, we predict that the p21 protein encoded by the Harvey virus differs from the cellular c-rasH-1-encoded p21 at only two amino acids; those at positions 12 and 59. Alterations at each of these positions may play a role in activating the viral p21 protein. The c-rasH-2 gene is likely to be a nonfunctional pseudogene because it lacks introns, cannot be activated to transform NIH 3T3 cells, and differs in sequence from both c-rasH-1 and v-rasH at several base pair positions.

Reading Frames

Harvey murine sarcoma virus is a retrovirus which transforms cells by means of a single virally encoded protein called p21 has. We have determined the nucleotide sequence of 1.0 kilobase in the 5' half of the viral genome which encompasses the has coding sequences and its associated regulatory signals. The nucleotide sequence has identified the amino acid sequence of two additional overlapping polypeptides which share their reading frames and the carboxyl termini with p21 but which contain additional NH2-terminal amino acids.
