The ultrastructure of the developing replication site in foot-and-mouth disease virus-infected BHK-38 cells

Abstract excerpt

Foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) is the type species of the Aphthovirus genus of the Picornaviridae: Infection by picornaviruses results in a major rearrangement of the host cell membranes to create vesicular structures where virus genome replication takes place. In this report, using fluorescence and electron microscopy, membrane rearrangements in the cytoplasm of FMDV-infected BHK-38 cells are documented. At...
