Human cytomegalovirus DNA replicates after early circularization by concatemer formation, and inversion occurs within the concatemer
1 Feb 1994
Abstract excerpt
To determine the replicative mechanism for human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) DNA, field inversion gel electrophoresis was used to separate HCMV replicative DNAs during lytic infection. Unit-length circular HCMV genomes lacking terminal restriction fragments were detected starting 4 h after infection even when cells were treated with aphidicolin, phosphonoacetic acid, or cycloheximide. Viral DNA synthesis began 24 h...
