Immediate-early transcription of Herpesvirus saimiri [PDF]
Transcription of Herpesvirus saimiri was characterized during the initial phases of productive infection by Northern blot analyses and hybridizations of radioactive cDNA with cloned fragments of virion L-DNA. Under conditions of immediate-early transcription, e.g., blocking of viral protein synthesis by cycloheximide, a single cytoplasmic ...
