Summary
Human parainfluenza virus type 2 (HPIV-2) was tested for its ability to replicate in murine L929 cells. L929 cells were non-permissive for replication of HPIV-2. Interferon produced endogenously played no role in its incomplete replication. The mechanism by which growth of HPIV-2 was suppressed in L929 cells was studied. Synthesis of virus-specific polypeptides, particularly glycoprotein(s), was suppressed in HPIV-2-infected L929 cells. The HN mRNA could scarcely be detected in virus-infected L929 cells.
