Abstract excerpt
The SV40 large T antigen mutant 5002 has two amino acid substitutions (L19-F; P28-S) and is defective for productive viral infection as demonstrated by its small plaques that arise very late and by a 100-fold reduced yield of infectious progeny. 5002 replicates viral DNA at the same time postinfe...
