General information
Name of the gene or DNA sequence
Feline leukemia virus envelope glycoprotein
Abbreviation
CS-FeLV-env
Category of DNA sequence
  • Protein coding sequence
Is the gene / DNA sequence is a synthetic molecule?
No
Donor organism
Donor organism
Feline leukemia virus - Feline leukemia virus, FeLV
Characteristics of the protein coding sequence
Name of the protein expressed by the coding sequence
Feline leukemia virus envelope glycoprotein
Biological function
The feline Leukemia virus env gene (FeLV-env) encodes a glycoprotein. The FeLV-env is used together with the nucleoprotein (FeLV-gag) and reverse transcriptase (FeLV-pol) genes of the feline leukemia virus in a vaccine. The FeLV-env gene induces the production of anti-viral antibodies helping to prevent the disease in cats.
