BALB/3T3 cells infected by the ts3 mutant of polyoma virus fail to accumulate virus-specific early RNA at the nonpermissive temperature. 1977

B Cogen, and W Eckhart

We measured the accumulation of virus-specific early RNA in BALB/3T3 cells infected by the ts3 mutant of polyoma virus by annealing cytoplasmic RNA from infected cells to purified, radiolabeled, "early" strand of polyoma DNA. Cells infected by the ts3 mutant fail to accumulate virus-specific early RNA at the nonpermissive temperature.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D009154	Mutation	Any detectable and heritable change in the genetic material that causes a change in the GENOTYPE and which is transmitted to daughter cells and to succeeding generations.	Mutations
D009693	Nucleic Acid Hybridization	Widely used technique which exploits the ability of complementary sequences in single-stranded DNAs or RNAs to pair with each other to form a double helix. Hybridization can take place between two complimentary DNA sequences, between a single-stranded DNA and a complementary RNA, or between two RNA sequences. The technique is used to detect and isolate specific sequences, measure homology, or define other characteristics of one or both strands.

D011120	Polyomavirus	A genus of potentially oncogenic viruses of the family POLYOMAVIRIDAE. These viruses are normally present in their natural hosts as latent infections. The virus is oncogenic in hosts different from the species of origin.
