Abstract excerpt
Treatment of wild type vaccinia virus infected cells with the anti-poxviral drug isatin-beta-thiosemicarbazone (IBT) induces the viral postreplicative transcription apparatus to synthesize longer-than-normal mRNAs through an unknown mechanism. Previous studies have shown that virus mutants resistant to or dependent on IBT affect genes involved in control of viral postreplicative transcription elongation. This...
