    Abstract Poliovirus isolates of serotypes 2 and 3 from patients whose paralytic poliomyelitis cases were classified as oral vaccine-associated were analysed by oligonucleotide mapping of the virus genomes and by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the virus proteins. Oligonucleotide maps of all isolates were similar to the maps of the corresponding oral vaccine strain. No two isolates gave identical maps. Most maps differed from that of the vaccine strain by at least one oligonucleotide spot. Maps of changes had occurred in the vaccine virus genomes during replication in one or two individuals. In contrast, maps of some neural tissue isolates showed minimal differences from the reference vaccine maps, raising the possibility that neurovirulence may be restored by a small number of genetic changes. For many isolates, changes were also detected in the mobilities and processing rates of the virus proteins.

    Abstract: Rabies virus polysomes contained two sizes of messenger RNAs, one of which had a sedimentation value of 30S and another which sedimented at 12 to 16S. RNA extracted from infected cultures contained virion-size RNA, 42S, as well as 30S and 12 to 16S RNA ... ...

    Abstract Rabies virus polysomes contained two sizes of messenger RNAs, one of which had a sedimentation value of 30S and another which sedimented at 12 to 16S. RNA extracted from infected cultures contained virion-size RNA, 42S, as well as 30S and 12 to 16S RNA species. Hybridization studies indicated that the 30S and 12 to 16S RNAs had nucleotide sequences which were complementary to virion RNA. RNA. RNA isolated from virus polysomes contained adenylate-rich sequences which were heterogeneous in size and were determined to be about 100 to 250 nucleotides in length on the basis of their migration rates in polyacrylamide gels. Acid-urea agarose gel electrophoresis established that the 30S RNA material was composed of a single RNA species (mol. wt. greater than or equal to 1.65 X 10(6)), whereas the 12 to 16S material could be resolved into at least four distinct species whose mol. wt. ranged from 0.28 to 0.87 X 10(6). When labelled rabies-infected cell RNAs, which were purified by oligo(dT)-cellulose chromatography, were annealed to excess unlabelled virus RNA, digested with ribonuclease T2 and the RNA duplex molecules analysed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, five duplexes could be separated. The mol. wt. of these duplexes were estimated to be 3.2, 1.4, 0.96, 0.55 and 0.39 X 10(6), when compared to the known mol. wt. of vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) RNA duplexes. This study suggests that the replicative processes of rabies virus are very similar to VSV and that rabies virus proteins are probably translated from smaller than virion-size RNAs.

    Abstract A method was developed for high resolution electrophoresis of proteins in linear gradient (3 to 30%) polyacrylamide gel rods in a neutral phosphate buffer containing 0.1% sodium dodecyl sulfate. Well-defined protein zones were observed and improved resolution was attained especially for low molecular weight proteins in preparations containing a variety of polypeptides, e.g. viruses that are often separated by continuous gel methods. Electropherograms of continuous (8%) and gradient (3 to 30%) gels were made of purified vesicular stomatitis virus, variola virus, Rickettsia rickettsii, and alpha and beta chains of hemoglobin in order to demonstrate the resolution of the gradient system.

    Abstract The results are presented of a special study to determine whether variola-like "whitepox" viruses could arise as white pock variants of monkeypox virus after one or a few mutations. DNA mapping by cross-hybridization of restriction endonuclease DNA fragments was carried out on 18 orthopoxviruses relevant to this study, including variola and monkeypox viruses and white (non-haemorrhagic) pock producers recovered from chorioallantoic membranes infected with red (haemorrhagic) pock-producing monkeypox viruses. The distinctiveness of the DNA maps of true variola and monkeypox viruses indicated that spontaneous production of "whitepox" from monkeypox virus was genetically impossible. These and other observations led to the conclusion that the "whitepox" viruses recovered from monkeypox virus stocks had an exogenous origin.

    Abstract Complete double-stranded DNA copies of the La Crosse virus (LAC) S genome have been synthesized and cloned into plasmid pBR322. The cloned genome was characterized and sequenced. The LAC S genome consisted of 981 nucleotides and contained two overlapping open reading frames. The first reading frame begins at nucleotide 82 and encodes a protein of 235 amino acids. A polypeptide of 92 amino acids can be translated in a +1 reading frame 16 nucleotides downstream from the start of the first reading frame. This second reading frame is initiated with two AUG codons followed by the serine codon UCG, the same serine codon which immediately follows the AUG of the first reading frame.

    Abstract The 5' and 3'-terminal sequences of the three RNA molecules which make up the genomes of La Crosse virus are reported. Eleven nucleotides at both the 5' and 3' termini of all three RNAs are conserved and complementary. In addition more extensive unique sequence complementarity is present in at least two of the three RNAs.
