Synthesis of Herpes Simplex Virus DNA in Preparations of Chromatin from Infected Cell Nuclei Free

Abstract

Summary

Chromatin prepared from cells infected with Herpes simplex virus type 1 or type 2 can synthesize both virus and cell DNA . The rate of synthesis is comparable to that of isolated whole nuclei. Incorporation is limited, and both cell and virus DNA synthesis are sensitive to the presence of virus-specific antiserum and phosphonoacetate. In chromatin from cells infected with a phosphonoacetate resistant virus mutant, both types of DNA synthesis are resistant to the presence of the inhibitor.
