Expression of frog virus 3 genes is impaired in mammalian cell lines [PDF]
Virology Journal, 2008 Frog virus 3 (FV3) is a large DNA virus that is the prototypic member of the family Iridoviridae. To examine levels of FV3 gene expression we generated a polyclonal antibody against the FV3 protein 75L.
