Partial purification and biochemical characterization of herpesvirus saimiri. 1975

H G Aaslestad, and D R Twardzik

HVS propagated in Vero cells was labelled with 3H-leucine and purified by isopycnic flotation in sucrose. Electron microscopic examination revealed both complete and incomplete HVS. No significant contamination with cellular debris was noted. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis analysis of solubilized virus revealed at least 12 proteins varying in molecular weight from 8 000 to 200 000 daltons.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D002500	Centrifugation, Isopycnic	A technique used to separate particles according to their densities in a continuous density gradient. The sample is usually mixed with a solution of known gradient materials and subjected to centrifugation. Each particle sediments to the position at which the gradient density is equal to its own. The range of the density gradient is usually greater than that of the sample particles. It is used in purifying biological materials such as proteins, nucleic acids, organelles, and cell types.
