Rubella virus and simina virus 40 (SV40) were isolated from a newborn child suffering from neurological and anatomical anomalies. The SV40 isolate was very similar to SV40 strain 777 by electron microscopic, biological, and immunological criteria.

We investigated whether the VP1 protein of simian virus 40 binds to DNA. In vitro DNA-binding experiments clearly indicate that VP1 bound strongly to double-stranded and single-stranded DNA, with a higher affinity for the latter; additional experiments show that VP1 did not bind to a specific sequence of simian virus 40 DNA.

This paper details the design and construction of a low-cost electric machine to perform efficiently as both a starter and alternator. In addition to efficiency, considerations are made with regards to safety, size, manufacturability and cost. The design for this machine is chosen to be a single-sided axial flux with surface-mount permanent magnet excitation fitted with single-layer non-overlap...

Treatment with interferon reduced the content of early virus-specific RNA, as well as the content of an early viral protein (T antigen), in monkey cells acutely infected with simian virus 40 (SV40). This unexpected finding suggests either that the action of interferon involves inhibition of the transcription of early SV40 messenger RNA, or that the SV40 genome contains a "proto-early" gene whos...

Recent developments are summarized in the theory of Bose– Einstein and Fermi–Dirac correlations, with emphasis on the necessity of a simultaneous analysis of particle spectra and quantum statistical correlations for a detailed reconstruction of the space-time picture of particle emission. The reviewed topics are as follows: basics and formalism of quantum-statistical correlations, model-indepen...
