Abstract
In pseudorabies virus-infected cells host DNA synthesis is turned off 4 to 5 h postinfection. In the presence of 0.5 mM 2-deoxy-D-glucose, however, synthesis of both cellular and viral DNA proceeds unimpaired throughout the virus replication cycle. The uptake of radioactive thymidine into mock-infected cells is not altered in the presence of 2-deoxy-D-glucose. Virus-specific protein synthesis and particle formation also proceed in medium containing the deoxy sugar, but the virus particles produced are noninfectious and cell fusion is inhibited.Entities:
