چکیده
The virions of vesicular stomatitis virus contain an enzyme that catalyzes the incorporation of ribonucleotides into RNA. The product of the reaction is mainly RNA complementary in base sequence to that of vesicular stomatitis virus RNA.

Ribonucleic acid polymerase in virions of Newcastle disease virus: comparison with the vesicular stomatitis virus polymerase.
The virions of Newcastle disease virus (NDV) contained an enzyme that catalyzed the incorporation of ribonucleotides into ribonucleic acid (RNA). Optimal conditions for this polymerase activity were identical to the conditions for the vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) polymerase, and both enzymes were active for longer times at 32 C than at 37 C. However, the specific activity of the NDV polymer...
متن کاملAdenylate-rich sequences in vesicular stomatitis virus messenger ribonucleic acid.
Vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV)-specific messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) species contain sequences of adenylate-rich RNA which are more heterogeneous in their migration through sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels than the corresponding fractions from HeLa cell mRNA. VSV virion RNA contains no adenylaterich sequences. The possible role of such sequences in the mRNA species of a cytopla...
متن کاملVirus-induced interference in heterologously infected HeLa cells.
In doubly infected HeLa cells, poliovirus type 1 rapidly and completely dominates vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) plaque-forming unit production. Poliovirus type 1 shuts off incorporation of amino acids into VSV-specific proteins within 2 hr after superinfection of cells already committed to massive synthesis of VSV proteins. However, poliovirus type 1 appears to have little, if any, direct ef...
متن کاملTemperature-Sensitive Mutants of Vesicular Stomatitis Virus
Different temperature-sensitive mutants of vesicular stomatitis virus have been characterized in terms of their ability to induce synthesis of viral ribonucleic acid (RNA) in BHK-21 cells at 39 C (the restrictive temperature for these mutants). Mutants belonging to complementation groups I and IV (and probably II) did not induce actinomycin-resistant RNA synthesis in infected cells incubated at...
متن کاملIn vitro synthesis of RNA that contains polyadenylate by virion-associated RNA polymerase of vesicular stomatitis virus.
The RNA synthesized in vitro by the virion-associated RNA-instructed RNA polymerase of purified vesicular stomatitis virus contains polyadenylate sequences. These have been demonstrated by their partial resistance to pancreatic and T(1) ribonucleases and their capacity to bind to poly(U) filters and oligo(dT)-cellulose. The polyadenylate sequences range in apparent size from 50 to 200 bases, si...
