چکیده
We measured the accumulation of virus-specific early RNA in BALB/3T3 cells infected by the ts3 mutant of polyoma virus by annealing cytoplasmic RNA from infected cells to purified, radiolabeled, "early" strand of polyoma DNA. Cells infected by the ts3 mutant fail to accumulate virus-specific early RNA at the nonpermissive temperature.

Electron microscopic characterization of the defectiveness of a temperature-sensitive mutant of Moloney murine leukemia virus restricted in assembly.
The effect of temperature shiftdown on the assembly of ts3 virions was investigated by both scanning (SEM) and transmission (TEM) electron microscopy. Ts3 is a spontaneous temperature-sensitive mutant of Moloney murine leukemia virus (Mo-MuLV) which previous studies indicated to be defective in assembly or release of the virions. In the present study, both SEM and TEM revealed the following: (i...
متن کاملTemperature-dependent surface changes in cells infected or transformed by a thermosensitive mutant of polyoma virus.
Infection of BALB/3T3 cells by polyoma virus causes an alteration in the cell surface, characterized by enhanced agglutination of the cells by wheat germ agglutinin or concanavalin A. Infection by the thermosensitive mutant of polyoma, ts-3, causes the cell surface alteration at the permissive temperature, but not at the nonpermissive temperature. The cell surface alteration requires cellular D...
متن کاملHost range transforming gene of polyoma virus plays a role in virus assembly.
Polyoma virus host range transforming (hr-t) mutants are blocked in virion assembly. In normal 3T3 cells, a nonpermissive host, these mutants synthesize 30-40% as much viral DNA and 80-100% as much capsid proteins as does wild-type virus and yet produce only 1-2% as much infectious virus. Intermediates in virion assembly have been followed by [3H]thymidine incorporation. hr-t mutants synthesize...
متن کاملTemperature-dependent properties of cells transformed by a thermosensitive mutant of polyoma virus.
In cells transformed by ts-3, a thermosensitive mutant of polyoma virus, the loss of inhibition of DNA synthesis by topographical factors (topo-inhibition), is rendered temperature-dependent, providing evidence that the viral genome controls this essential aspect of transformation. The expression of two other attributes of transformed cells, growth in agar and serum requirement for initiation o...
متن کاملA temperature-sensitive mutant of Newcastle disease virus defective in intracellular processing of fusion protein.
A temperature-sensitive mutant (ts3) of Newcastle disease virus was physiologically characterized. All major viral structural proteins were synthesized at the permissive (37 degrees C) and nonpermissive (42 degrees C) temperatures, but the fusion (F) glycoprotein was not cleaved at 42 degrees C. In immunocytochemical electron microscopy, the F protein was abundant in the rough endoplasmic retic...
