Early virion-associated suppression of cellular protein synthesis by herpes simplex virus is accompanied by inactivation of mRNA
Abstract
Vero cells infected with herpes simplex virus in the presence of actinomycin or cycloheximide, or with u.v.-inactivated virus, suffered a rapid loss of functional mRNA as determined by translation in vitro. It is suggested that a virion-associated factor causes a structural change in the mRNA of the host cell.
