Abstract excerpt
A revertant was isolated from a temperature-sensitive poliovirus 2C mutant, 2C-31, which is defective in viral RNA synthesis. This revertant, called 2C-31R1, grew well at 39 degrees C and was not defective in RNA synthesis. However, in contrast to its parental mutant, 2C-31R1 was cold sensitive and could hardly grow at all at 32 degrees C. Analysis of a single-cycle growth revealed that 2C-31R1 was defective in...
