Abstract

SUMMARY

Scanning electron microscopy of AKR cells chronically infected with AKR mouse leukaemia virus revealed that the number of budding virions was greatly increased in interferon-treated cells. These results, together with previous biochemical findings, suggest that in this system, interferon inhibits a late stage of virus assembly or release.
