UV Irradiation induces an activity which stimulates Simian virus 40 rescue upon cell fusion.

Abstract

UV irradiation of African green monkey cells greatly stimulated efficiency of simian virus 40 induction from simian virus 40-transformed Syrian hamster cells after cell fusion. The maximum inducing activity was observed at 15 to 20 h after irradiation but remained only transiently. The addition of cycloheximide after UV irradiation eliminated the stimulation of the activity.
