Qualitative complementation test for temperature-sensitive mutants of herpes simplex virus.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A simple, rapid, qualitative method for classifying temperature-sensitive mutants of herpes simplex virus into functional complementation groups has been developed. The positive reaction observed in this test reflects the ability of mutant pairs to interact by both complementation and recombination.

متن کاملMutant analysis of herpes simplex virus-induced cell surface antigens: resistance to complement-mediated immune cytolysis.
BHK-21 cells infected with temperature-sensitive mutants of herpes simplex virus type 1 strain KOS representing 16 complementation groups were tested for susceptibility to complement-mediated immune cytolysis at permissive (34 degrees C) and nonpermissive (39 degrees C) temperatures. Only cells infected by mutants in complementation group E were resistant to immune cytolysis in a temperature-se...
متن کاملVaricella-zoster virus complements herpes simplex virus type 1 temperature-sensitive mutants.
Varicella-zoster virus (VZV) can complement temperature-sensitive mutants of herpes simplex virus. Of seven mutants tested, two, carrying mutations in the immediate-early ICP4 and ICP27 proteins, were complemented. This complementation was not seen in coinfections with adenovirus type 5 or cytomegalovirus. Following transfection into CV-1 cells, a DNA fragment containing the VZV short repeat se...

Nine 5-bromodeoxyuridine-induced temperature-sensitive (ts) mutants were isolated from stocks of a syncytial plaque type mutant (syn) itself derived from the non-syncytial wild-type (syn +) of the GLASGOW strain i7 of herpes simplex virus type i. The nine ts mutants have been assigned to eight cistrons on the basis of different complementation tests. Non-syncytial revertants isolated from the o...
متن کاملTemperature - Sensitive Host Range Mutants of Herpes Simplex Virus Type 2 ROGER
Herpesviruses are capable of several types of infection of a host cell. To investigate the early events which ultimately determine the nature of the virus-host cell interaction, a system was established utilizing temperature-sensitive mutants of herpes simplex virus type 2. Four mutants have been isolated which fail to induce cytopathic effects and do not replicate at 39 C in hamster embryo fib...
