Abstract

Hybrid selected translation was used to map the genome of herpesvirus saimiri, a lymphotropic and oncogenic herpesvirus. RNA extracted from virus-infected cells was hybridized to cloned genomic fragments, and the hybrid selected mRNAs were translated in vitro in a rabbit reticulocyte lysate. Forty-five virus-induced polypeptides were identified and correlated to their coding regions on the herpesvirus saimiri genome. Inhibition of the replication of viral DNA with phosphonoacetic acid showed that 22 of these polypeptides belong to the early group of herpesvirus saimiri gene products.
