Abstract
Poxvirus has a deoxyribonucleic acid polymerase activity that remains associated with the virus despite repeated centrifugation through sucrose gradients. Highly purified poxvirus preparation can adsorb deoxyribonucleic acid polymerase from cytoplasmic extracts of cells containing such an activity. These results indicate that caution must be used in assuming that an enzyme associated with a purified virus is necessarily an integral part of the virion.
