DNA Polymerase in Pseudorabies Virus Infected Cells
Journal of General Virology, 1976 The DNA polymerase activity in BHK 21/C13 cells infected with pseudorabies virus is inhibited by incubation with antiserum to pseudorabies but not by incubation with pre-immune serum or by antiserum to herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) or herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2).
