Archives of Virology Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

Transcription of virus DNA was detectablein vitro in nuclei isolated from cells infected with wild type and bromodeoxyuridine (BUdR)-resistant herpes simplex virus type 1 but was suppressed in nuclei of cells infected with ultraviolet irradiated or defective virus or cells treated with BUdR during infection.
