The vaccinia virus conditional-lethal temperature-sensitive (ts) mutant ts4149 is, at the nonpermissive temperature, severely impaired in its ability to replicate its DNA genome. Compared to wild type, the amount of replication is suppressed by several orders of magnitude, and the little DNA that is replicated is not converted to mature linear genomes. We have demonstrated that this "DNA-" phenotype is not the...
