Abstract excerpt
Phenotypic analysis of the herpes simplex virus type 1 temperature-sensitive DNA-positive mutant, ts1233, revealed that the mutant had a structural defect at the nonpermissive temperature (NPT). Cells infected with ts1233 at the NPT contained large numbers of intermediate capsids, lacking dense cores but possessing some internal structure. No full capsids or enveloped virus particles were detected. In contrast to...
