Abstract
Computer comparisons of amino acid sequences from 8 retroviral oncogenes and 26 protein hormones were done with respect to structure similarity and so-called uninterrupted structure similarity. Sequence homology was found between v-myc, the transforming protein of MC29 virus, and human gastrin and oxytocin on the one hand, and between v-sis, the transforming protein of simian sarcoma virus, and secretin on the other.
