Abstract

An endonucleolytic activity associated with purified simian virus 40 (SV40) virions has been found. The enzyme is present in virions prepared from a number of different host lines. The enzyme is present in all early and late temperature-sensitive mutants examined. Some aspects of the endonucleolytic activity have been examined with SV40 deoxyribonucleic acid as substrate.
