Ribonuclease Sensitivity of Semliki Forest Virus Nucleocapsids

Nicholas H Acheson 1,1, Igor Tamm 1
PMCID: PMC376065  PMID: 5464291

Abstract

Treatment of Semliki Forest virus nucleocapsids with pancreatic ribonuclease (1 μg/ml, 37 C) digests the ribonucleic acid to acid-soluble fragments; the nucleocapsid protein forms a rapidly sedimenting aggregate.
