Abstract

SUMMARY

Double-stranded RNA from SB virus-infected cells was denatured and analysed on agarose-methylmercuric hydroxide gels. Equimolar amounts of three single-stranded species with mol. wt. of 4 × 10, 2.5 × 10 and 1.8 × 10 were found. Pulse and chase experiments in infected cells established a precursor-product relationship between the multi-stranded and single-stranded virus RNA species. The present results support the model in which the 49S and 26S species of virus RNA are synthesized in infected cells from two distinct replicating structures.
