| sulfated components of enveloped viruses. | the glycoproteins of several enveloped viruses, grown in a variety of cell types, are labeled with 35so4(-2), whereas the nonglycosylated proteins are not. this was shown for the hn and f glycoproteins of sv5 and sendai virus, the e1 and e2 glycoproteins of sindbis virus, and for the major glycoprotein, gp69, as well as for a minor glycoprotein, gp52, of rauscher leukemia virus. the minor glycoprotein of rauscher leukemia virus is more highly sulfated, with a ratio of 35so4- [3h]glucosamine abou ... | 1975 | 170420 |
| morphogenesis of sindbis virus in cultured aedes albopictus cells. | cultured mosquito cells were found to produce sindbis virus nearly as efficiently as bhk-21 cells at 28 c. in virtually all of the cells observed in the electron microscope, virus morphogenesis was found to occur within complex vesicular structures which developed after viral infection. viral nucleocapsids were first seen in these vesicles and appeared to be enveloped within these structures. the process of envelopment within these inclusions differed in some respects from the process previously ... | 1975 | 170422 |
| [in vitro evaluation of antiviral inhibitors by means of a turbidity method (author's transl)]. | the paper presents a photometric method for the determination of virus-induced alterations (cytopathogenic effects) of cells based on nephelometric analysis. these were taken at varying time intervals after infection and with different multiplicity of infection. it was demonstrated that suppression of virus-induced cpe by the known inhibitors could also be followed by turbidity measurements. the in vitro experiments were carried out in the 2 following virus-cell-systems: pseudorabies virus in ch ... | 1975 | 171906 |
| murine cytomegalovirus: induction of and sensitivity to interferon in vitro. | moderate amounts of viral inhibitor were produced by mouse embryo (me) cultures infected with two strains of plaque-purified murine cytomegalovirus (mcv). this inhibitor was shown to be interferon, based on the possession of similar properties. the growth studies of mcv in me cells showed that interferon was produced as early as 4 h after infection, infectious virus was produced between 12 to 16 h, and cytopathic effect was produced between 16 to 18 h. since mcv-induced interferon production and ... | 1975 | 172448 |

| growth of enveloped rna viruses in a line of chinese hamster ovary cells with deficient n-acetylglucosaminyltransferase activity. | sindbis and vesicular stomatitis viruses were grown in a line (termed 15b) of chinese hamster ovary (cho) cells that is deficient in a specific udp-n-acetyl-glucosamine:glycoprotein n-acetylglucosaminyltransferase. both viruses replicated normally in the cell line, but the glycoproteins of the released virus migrated faster on sodium didecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels than did glycoproteins of virus grown in parent cho cells. digestion of the viral glycoproteins with pronase followed by gel fil ... | 1975 | 173886 |
| virus-dependent glycosylation. | the oligosaccharides of the membrane glycoproteins of sindbis virus, vesicular stomatitis virus, and rous sarcoma virus were compared on the basis of apparent size and sugar composition. it appears that each virus acquires a different set of oligosaccharides during growth in a single type of cell. | 1975 | 173894 |
| biological properties of three spontaneous mutants of sindbis virus. | 1975 | 46745 | |
| purification and electron microscopy of lactic dehydrogenase virus of mice. | lactic dehydrogenase virus (ldv) was purified from infectious ascites fluid of mice bearing ehrlich tumours using sepharose gel filtration and rate zonal and isopycnic sedimentation. in glycerol gradients, a sedimentation coefficient of about 200s and a buoyant density of 1-14 g/ml was determined for the virus particle. spherical particles with diam. between 62 and 80 nm, depending on the method of fixation and staining, have been identified electron microscopically. the virus particle consists ... | 1975 | 47383 |

| interaction of sindbis virus with liposomal model membranes. | radiolabeled sindbis virus was found to bind to protein-free lipid model membranes (liposomes) derived from extracts of sheep erythrocytes. the virus interaction was dependent on initial ph, and the range of ph dependence (ph 6.0 to 6.8) was the same as the observed with virus-dependent hemagglutination. after the initial interaction, ph changes no longer influenced the virus binding to liposomes. virus bound to liposomes prepared from a mixture of erythrocyte phospholipids, but the binding was ... | 1975 | 234538 |
| ribonuclease-resistant rna of kemerovo virus. | rna of partially purified kemerovo virus sedimented in a relatively broad region in sucrose density gradient with a peak at 14 s. approximately 65% of this rna was resistant to the action of ribonuclease which indicates the double-stranded nature of kemerovo virus rna. | 1975 | 235200 |
| comparison of the sensitivity to ultraviolet irradiation of reovirus 3 and some viruses of the kemerovo group. | the kinetics of uv inactivation of the tick-borne kemerovo (strain r-10) and lipovnik (strain lip-91) viruses which have been preliminarily classified as possible members of the reovirus group was examined. reovirus 3 and sindbis virus served as reference double-stranded rna and single-stranded rna viruses, respectively. the parameters of uv inresembled those of reovirus 3. this is consistent with their tentative classification as reovirus-like viruses. | 1975 | 235204 |
| arbovirus infections in sarawak, october 1968--february 1970 tembusu and sindbis virus isolations from mosquitoes. | thirty isolations of tembusu virus and four of sindbis virus were obtained from approximately 280 000 mosquitoes collected between october 1968 and february 1970 in sarawak, particularly from k. tijirak, a land dyak village 19 miles south of kuching. twenty-two isolations of tembusu virus and two of sindbis virus were from culex tritaeniorhynchus; two of tembusu virus and two of sindbis virus came from culex gelidus. tembusu virus was active throughout the year at k. tijirak, the highest infecti ... | 1975 | 235907 |
| double-stranded complex of polyguanylic and polycytidylic acids and its antiviral activity in tissue culture. | the antiviral activity and conditions of formation of the most active double-stranded complexes of synthetic homopolynucleotides, polyriboguanylic and polyribocytidylic acids, were studied on the model of primary trypsinized chick embryo cells and rna-containing viruses. the (poly g).(poly c) complex was very active against the viruses tested; their replication in cell cultures was inhibited completely. the antiviral activity of the (poly g).(poly c) complex increased markedly in the presence of ... | 1975 | 239557 |
| isolation and identification of group b arboviruses from the blood of birds captured in czechoslovakia. | three west nile (wn) virus strains were isolated from the blood of birds (tringa ochropus, vanellus vanellus and streptopenia turtur) captured in south slovakia. one strain of tick-borne encephalitis (te) virus was isolated from the blood of tringa ochropus captured in south moravia. | 1975 | 239564 |
| streptovirudins -- new antibiotics with antiviral activity. the antiviral spectrum and inhibition of newcastle disease virus in cell cultures. | streptovirudins are new antibiotics isolated as a mixture of several structurally related compounds from fermentations of streptomyces griseoflavus (krainsky) waksman et henrici var. thuringensis ja 10124. they possess antiviral activity against rna and dna viruses cultivated in chick embryo cells, namely sindbis, fowl plague, newcastle disease (ndv), pseudorabies, vaccinia and sheep abortion viruses. the naturally formed streptovirudin complex, in concentrations of 20-2.5 mug/ml inhibited the v ... | 1975 | 241229 |
| virus neutralizing antibodies to arboviruses in birds of the order anseriformes in czechoslovakia. | sera from birds of the order anseriformes in czechoslovakia were examined for virus neutralizing (vn) antibodies to arboviruses. vn antibodies to sindbis, calovo and tahyna viruses were found in 15, 5 and 6 out of 106 greylag goose (anser anser) sera. out of 38 ducks, 6 mallards (anas platyrhynchos) and 1 garganey (anas querquedula) contained vn antibodies to sindbis virus, 6 mallards to calovo virus, 4 mallards and 1 garganey to tahyna virus, 2 mallards and 1 garganey to tick-borne encephalitis ... | 1975 | 241234 |
| purification of togavirus haemagglutinins by chromatography on controlled pore glass. | purified preparations of haemagglutinins from sindbis, west nile and tick-borne encephalitis (tbe) viruses could be obtained from infected mouse brains by alkaline extraction, precipitation with protamine and chromatography on polyethylene glycol-coated controlled pore glass with 242 a pore diameter. | 1975 | 241241 |
| isolation of chikungunya virus contaminating an aedes albopictus cell line. | an aedes albopictus cell line was found contaminated with structures morphologically compatible with an alphavirus. rapid isolation of a cytopathic virus was effected by combining sonication, concentration with aquacide ii-r, rate zonal sedimentation and subsequent plating of fractions on vero cells under agar overlay. the virus caused neithedeath nor disease on inoculation into infant and adult mice. it produced a c.p.e. in vero and bhk 21 cells, and multiplied in singh's aedes aegypti cells. t ... | 1975 | 806659 |

| the influence of arboviral infection on the susceptibility of cultured cells to immune injury in vitro. | the susceptibility of llc-mk2 monkey kidney cells to antivirus (antibodies versus viral antigens in the plasma membrane) and anticell (antibodies versus plasma membrane antigens) immune cytolysis in vitro was observed during the course of 100 continuous subcultures of these cells. in that period, llc-mk2 cells infected with the group b arboviruses, japanese encephalitis virus and dengue 2 virus, became progressively refractory to the complement-dependent antivirus immune cytolysis as measured ... | 1975 | 808137 |
| [the length of polyadenylic acid tracts of sindbis virus rna: the possible existence of two synthetic mechanisms]. | the poly (a) tracts of rna's from viral particles and from replicative complex belong to two classes of 180 and of 60 nucleotides in length. those of the mrna are homogenous and around 280 nucleotides in length. the results presented here strongly suggest the possibility of a copying mechanism in the first case and of a posttranscriptional addition in the latter. | 1975 | 809185 |

| in vivo behavior of a sindbis virus mutant isolated from persistently infected aedes aegypti cell cultures. | a mutant of the sindbis virus sv-s was found to interfere with the regular course of infection by the wild strain of the virus sv-w in a. aegypti mosquitoes and in suckling mice. in mosquitoes, this result was manifested by a reduced titer of sv-w in the presence of sv-s and by a failure of the mosquitoes to transmit sv-w. in the brains of suckling mice, in the presence of sv-s, the growth of sc inoculated sv-w was suppressed, and as a result, the usually lethal course of infection by this virus ... | 1975 | 1072594 |
| observations of aedes albopictus cell cultures persistently infected with sindbis virus. | 1975 | 1072595 | |
| neutralization of a togavirus by antivector antisera. | an a. aegypti-propagated togavirus (sindbis) is neutralized by antisera to both whole-body extracts and to salivary fluid of the vector mosquito. virus propagated in vero cells is not neutralized by such antisera. neutralizing activity resides in the immune globulin fraction of sera. sera from animals injected with adjuvant neutralized neither virus propagated in mosquitoes nor virus obtained from vero cells. although neutralizing titers were low, such activity may protect, to some degree, verte ... | 1975 | 1072597 |
| preliminary evidence for cell-mediated immunity in cross-protection among group a arboviruses. | unfractionated and t cell-enriched populations from spleens of mice immunized with sinbdis virus confer cross-protection against semliki forest virus challenge in recipient mice. both group a viruses are serologically related, but not by tests for cross-neutralizing antibody. the protection in mice persisted for three consecutive cell passages in uninfected mice. the results suggest that cell-mediated immunity accounts for cross-protection. | 1975 | 1079033 |
| inhibition of group b arbovirus antigen production and replication in cells enucleated with cytochalasin b. | a comparative study of the growth of sindbis (sin) virus, a group a arbovirus (togavirus), and japanese encephalitis (je) virus, a representative group b arbovirus (togavirus), was conducted in enucleate and nucleate cells. immunofluorescent tests and yield measurements demonstrated that chicken embryo cells which had been enucleated and subsequently infected with sin virus produced virus-specific antigens and infectious virus. by contrast, je failed to replicate or produce virus-specific antige ... | 1975 | 1090752 |
| sindbis virus replication in vertebrate and mosquito cells: an interpretation. | this paper summarizes recent comparative studies of sindbis virus (sv) replication in cultured aedes albopictus (a. albo) or (a. aegypti (a. aeg) and bhk21 or chick embryo (cef) cells. 1. viral growth kinetics and yields are similar in a. albo cells at 28 degress c and in vertebrate cells at 37 degrees c. a. albo exhibit no cpe and yield persistenetly infected cultures. 2. sv grown in a. albo cells lacks sialic acid but is antigenically and in terms of particle/pfu or particle/hau ratios equival ... | 1975 | 1107684 |
| processing of alphavirus-specific proteins in infected cells. | the rna of the alphaviruses contains the genetic information for both the non-structural and the structural polypeptides. the former are contained in the initial two-thirds of the sequence (from the 5'-terminus) and are read directly from the virus particle rna, but whether post-translational cleavage is involved or not is not known. the genes for the structural polypeptides are in the final one-third of the genome, and are probably not read directly but are transcribed selectively to produce a ... | 1975 | 1107686 |

| [multiplication of sindbis virus in drosophila cells cultivated in vitro (author's transl)]. | sindbis virus replicates in drosophila cell cultures without any cytopathic effect. in continuous cell lines the virus is able to establish a persistent infection similar to other arboviruses in insect cell lines. the growth curve of sindbis virus in drosophila cells shows a maximum virus yield at around 24 hours postinfection, thereafter the virus production decreases and then remains fairly constant during a number of cell divisions. the average virus yield per cell has been estimated to be sm ... | 1975 | 1147779 |
| changes of the cell type of bhk-21 lines by persistent sindbis virus. | persistent infection by sindbis virus (sv) can be induced in cultures of bhk-21 cells. in a persistently infected cell line only 5% of the cells produced virus. virus titers in the medium reached 10(5) pfu per ml. a persistent infection could be eliminated from cultures by seeding at most 100 cells per bottle. compared with the original line decontaminated lines differed in several properties. after infection with sv ten times less virus was released into the medium, and an infection persisted w ... | 1975 | 1154915 |
| neutralization of sindbis virus by antisera to antigens of vector mosquitoes. | sindbis virus harvested from infected cultures of vero cells and from aedes aegypti mosquitoes was used in neutralization tests with sera obtained from guinea pigs immunized with ground a. aegypti and from guinea pigs repetitively bitten by mosquitoes. employing these antisera, more mosquito-propagated virus was neutralized than was virus grown in cultures of vero cells. the neutralizing activity resided in the immune globulin fraction and may reflect the production of antibody to vector antigen ... | 1975 | 1155692 |
| the distribution and prevalence of group a arbovirus neutralizing antibodies among human populations in southeast asia and the pacific islands. | plaque reduction neutralization tests, using five group a arboviruses (chikungunya, ross river, getah, bebaru and sindbis), were done on sera from human populations in 44 southeast asia and pacific island localities. specificity of the plaque neutralization test was determined by examining convalescent sera from patients with known alphavirus infections. chikungunya-specific neutralizing antibodies were demonstrated in sera of persons living in south vietnam, northern malaysia, indonesia (kalima ... | 1975 | 1155702 |
| isolation of murray valley encephalitis virus from sentinel chickens. | sentinel chickens were established in 3 centres along the murray valley on 20 december 1973. the demonstration of antibody in the serum of chickens in the mildura and kerang areas indicated sindbis virus activity late in december 1973 and early in january 1974. tests for antibody to mve virus were negative until blood collected from one chicken at echuca on 27 february 1974 and several chickens at mildura and kerang on 14 march 1974, showed positive hi reactions. murray valley encephalitis virus ... | 1975 | 1164265 |
| interfering passages of sindbis virus: concomitant appearance of interference, morphological variants, and trucated viral rna. | serial passage of sindbis at high multiplicities of infection resulted in cyclical variations in virus titer. decreases in virus titer were correlated with the appearance of smaller-sized virions, interference and truncated viral rna. the smaller particles were 37 nm in diameter, exclusive of the hemagglutinin spikes as compared with a diameter of 50 nm for standard virions. passages which contained 37-nm partilces also interfered with infectious center formation by standard, plaque-purified vir ... | 1975 | 1165599 |
| alterations in sindbis viral enbelope proteins by treating bhk cells with glucosamine. | addition of d-glucosamine to bhk cells infected with sindbis virus inhibited the formation of the e-2 viral envelope from its precursor pe-2. release of virus was blocked, and two new viral protein bands replaced the normal envelope protein bands detected in sds-gel electropherograms of infected cell extracts. | 1975 | 1167605 |
| isolation of a sindbis virus variant by passage on mouse plasmacytoma cells. | a variant of sindbis virus has been isolated by growing a stock of virus, previously passaged on chicken embryo cells, in mouse plasmacytoma (mopc 315) cells in suspension culture. an indirect immunofluorescence test and infective center assay showed that only a small fraction of cells could be infected by the stock wild-type virus, but that the population of virus accumulating after a few passages on the mouse cells had host-range properties distinct from the stock virus. the mouse-passaged vir ... | 1975 | 1167912 |
| the role of interferon in interference and auto-interference elicited by newcastle disease virus. | newcastle disease virus (ndv) strains interfere in different degree with the growth of the velogenic ndv strain texas gb (homologous interference) and sindbis virus (heterologous interference) in chick embryo fibroblast cells. homologous interference was elicited by interferon-producing live or uv-inactivated strains and non-interferon-producing live or beta-propiolactone-inactivated strains and it was not influenced by actinomycin d. thus, interferon had apparently no role in homologous interfe ... | 1975 | 1168397 |

| structure and chemical-physical characteristics of lactate dehydrogenase-elevating virus and its rna. | lactate dehydrogenase-elevating virus (ldv) was purified from culture fluid of infected primary cultures of various mouse tissues (peritoneal macrophage, bone marrow, spleen, and embryo) and from plasma of infected mice. electron microscopy of negatively stained virus and positively stained sections of ldv revealed spherical particles of uniform size with a diameter of about 55 nm, containing an electron-dense core with a diameter of about 30 nm. during sample preparation the envelope had a tend ... | 1975 | 1171266 |
| sindbis virus glycoproteins: effect of the host cell on the oligosaccharides. | sindbis virus was grown in four different host cells and the carbohydrate portions of the glycoproteins were analyzed. sindbis virus grown in bhk-21 cells has more sialic acid and galactose than sindbis virus grown in chicken embryo cells. in other respects the carbohydrates from virus grown in these two hosts are very similar. sindbis virus grown either in chick cells transformed by rous sarcoma virus or in bhk cells transformed by polyoma virus was also examined. in comparisons of virus from n ... | 1975 | 1171992 |

| initiation sites for translation of sindbis virus 42s and 26s messenger rnas. | sindbis virus 26s rna is the principal species of virus-specific rna found in the infected cell; it is derived from a one third segment of virion 42s rna. when translated in cell-free extracts from mouse ascites cells or rabbit reticulocytes, 26s rna directed the synthesis primarily of the 33,000 dalton virus capsid protein, and the protein products were in the form of free peptides rather than peptidyl-trna. in contrast, the polypeptides synthesized in either extract in response to sindbis viru ... | 1975 | 1182802 |

| sindbis virus infected l cells studied by ferritin-labelled antibodies. | sindbis virus infected l cells were examined by immunoferritin technique at different times after infection. initially virus-specific antigens appeared diffusely distributed in the cytoplasm and at the surface of vacuoles. later on, both labelled nucleocapsids surrounding vacuoles and mature virus within their lumen were demonstrated. maturation of virus occurred predominantly at the periphery of cells, and that mainly by budding from cell processes. the appearance of big crystals consisting of ... | 1975 | 1221673 |
| [study of the antiviral action of gentamicin]. | experimental data on the effect of various concentrations of gentamycin on reproduction of vee and sindbis viruses in tissue culture are presented. it was found that gentamycin had no cytotoxic effect on the primary tripsinized chick embryon fibroblasts (cef) when used in doses of 10, 20 or 30 mg/ml and only when used in a dose of 50 mg/ml it induced 50 percent destruction of the cell layer. multiplication of the vee and sindbis viruses in the culture of cef was inhibited in the presence of gent ... | 1975 | 1225192 |
| requirement of cell nucleus for the replication of an arenavirus. | baby hamster kidney (bhk21) cells enucleated with cytochalasin b were infected with pichinde virus or sindbis virus. viral replication was measured by plaque assay, and the synthesis of viral antigens was determined by immunofluorescence. pichinde virus replication was completely inhibited in cells enucleated prior to infection as measured by both techniques while the replication of sindbis virus was unaffected. enucleation of cells at different times after infection with pichinde virus indicate ... | 1975 | 1235853 |
| interferon induction by viruses and polynucleotides: a differential effect of comptothecin. | the plant alkaloid comptothecin inhibits interferon production induced by newcastle disease virus (ndv) or ultraviolet-irradiated ndv in chick and human cells, and by sindbis virus in chick cells. it has no effect on interferon production induced by poly (ri).poly(rc) in chick and human cells. no effect of comptothecin could be detected on the multiplication of ndv, and it is concluded that the inhibition reflects a difference between interferon induction by viruses and by polynucleotides. | 1975 | 1239490 |
| the effect of canavanine on the capsid protein of sindbis virus. | in the presence of the arginine analogue canavanine, sindbis virus-infected bhk 21 cells synthesize a capsid protein of somewhat larger molecular weight than that of controls. this protein can also be seen in short pulse-labelled cells, and probably represents a precursor of the normal capsid protein. in our experiments canavanine had no effect on the viral envelope proteins, and the canavanine containing capsid protein formed nucleocapsids and virus particles as well as normal capsid protein do ... | 1975 | 1239648 |
| effect of cycloheximide on viral precursor protein b in sindbis virus-infected bhk cells. | the possible role of b protein, a postulated precursor of viral envelope proteins was studied in sindbis virus-infected bhk cells. although tryptic digestion of the b protein produces tryptic peptides of the viral envelope proteins it seems unlikely that b molecules accumulated in the cytoplasm of infected cells are subsequently cleaved into structural proteins. we suggest that if b is really the precursor of e1 and pe2 viral envelope proteins, the cleavage takes place on the ribosomes during th ... | 1975 | 1239649 |
| binding of polyriboinosinic-polyribocytidylic acid with cultured cells. | homogenates prepared from polyriboinosinic-polyribocytidylic acid copolymer [poly(ri) - poly(rc)]-treated cells exhibited antiviral activity in chick embryo, l and rabbit kidney cells. the antiviral activity in the homogenate co-sedimented with cellular membrane material and was shown to be poly(ri) - poly(rc) by a hybridization competition test with immobilized polyribocytidylic acid. the results indicate that poly(ri) - poly(rc) binds firmly to cellular membrane. these studies, however, could ... | 1975 | 1239991 |
| [the absence of sindbis virus from french polynesia]. | the authors report, in french polynesia that sindbis antigen is a good control for rubella serodiagnosis. data are presented on hemagglutination inhibition from 2,032 sera, showing no evidence of any sindbis antigen circulation. | 1975 | 1243736 |
| morphology of bhk-21 cells infected with sindbis virus temperature-sensitive mutants in complementation groups d and e. | bhk-21 cells infected with temperature-sensitive mutants of sindbis virus in complementation groups d and e differed in their appearance under nonpermissive conditions. cells infected at nonpermissive temperature with virus defective in complementation group e had nucleocapsids attached in large numbers to the inside surface of the host plasma membrane. infection with a group d mutant produced nucleocapsids that did not attach to the plasma membrane but rather remained free in the cell cytoplasm ... | 1975 | 16789157 |
| effects of cytosine arabinoside, adenine arabinoside, and 6-azauridine on rabies virus in vitro and in vivo. | the antiviral agents cytosine arabinoside, adenine arabinoside, and 6-azauridine were shown to inhibit the replication of rabies virus in vitro but not the replication of sindbis virus. these same drugs were not effective in reducing the mortality rate in mice challenged with street rabies virus. | 1976 | 1245759 |
| genetic exclusion and stable complementation of sindbis virus. | in an effort to enhance genetic interactions by eliminating spatial or physical barriers between variants of sindbis virus mgcl2 was used to aggregate infecting viral particles. mixing viral samples in a 1:1 ratio with 0.5 m mgcl2 produced maximal reduction in plaque forming units (pfu) with minimal cell damage due to mgcl2. aggregate size was determined to be about 7 pfu. samples taken at 3,5 and 10 hours after infection with mixed aggregates composed of large and small plaque forming virus ind ... | 1976 | 1259595 |
| role of the immune response in age-dependent resistance of mice to encephalitis due to sindbis virus. | one- to eight-week-old mice were studied after subcutaneous inoculation of sindbis virus. local replication at the site of inoculation, transient viremia, and invasion of the brain were found in mice of all ages, although the quantities of virus were greater in younger mice. death occurred in 100% of one-week-old mice, 28% of two-week-old mice, and none of the mice four weeks old or older. pathologic examination of the brains on day 7 after infection revealed a mononuclear inflammatory infiltrat ... | 1976 | 1262711 |
| enveloped virus acquires membrane defect when passaged in fibroblasts from i-cell disease patients. | sindbis virus obtained after passage on human fibroblasts from patients with i-cell disease (mucolipidosis ii) and called i-cell virus differed from sindbis virus obtained from chick fibroblasts or from normal human fibroblasts in two ways: (1) the i-cell virus was extremely unstable to freezing and thawing, (2) the i-cell virus showed greatly exaggerated sensitivity to inactivation by triton x-100. sindbis virus from fibroblasts from two patients with mucolipidosis iii, a milder form of i-cell ... | 1976 | 821054 |
| [comparative studies of two alphavirus by macroplaque assays and by a fluorescent focus method in vero cell lines (author's transl)]. | immune anti-sindbis and anti-chikungunya ascitic fluids have been titrated by the classic way of plaque reduction and by a quick fluorescent focus method using an indirect staining. the results are comparable, allowing to consider the use of this quick and inexpensive technic for counting-assays by neutralization. | 1976 | 828464 |
| [adaptation of a sindbis virus population to "drosophila melanogaster" (author's transl)]. | the evolution of a sindbis virus population during serial passages in drosophila has been studied. the adaptation of sindbis virus to this unusual host was achieved within about twenty passages. of course, the viral population went on evolving: a thermosensitive mutant appeared which excluded the original virus; later, a new type, different in plaques morphology, was observed: it did not exclude the former type but remained balanced with it. the adaptation of sindbis virus to drosophila was reve ... | 1976 | 828837 |
| variants of the hr strain of sindbis virus lethal for mice. | we have selected two similar variants of sindbis hr virus which are lethal for mice. consecutive brain to brain passage series were conducted in suckling and weanling mice. specific anti-sindbis hr neutralization tests and protection tests demonstrate that these viruses are derived from the parent sindbis hr. | 1976 | 932692 |

| kinetics of the rapid action of interferon. | the present study was undertaken to examine some factors which lead to early-appearing resistance in human cells treated with interferon. it was previously shown that two conditions required for rapid development of resistance were continuous maintenance of cultures at 37 degrees and use of more than 10 units/ml of interferon. the decay kinetics of the established resistance appear to be approximately the same whether the resistance was induced under conditions favoring rapid or slow development ... | 1976 | 967891 |
| defective interfering passages of sindbis virus: nature of the defective virion rna. | defective interfering particles of sindbis virus contain 20s rna identical to that found in bhk cells co-infected with standard and defective virions. we have characterized these rnas by their oligonucleotide fingerprints. most of the oligonucleotides were identical to those found in the mrna (26s rna) that codes for the virion structural proteins. three oligonucleotides found in 20s rna were absent from the 26s rna pattern and may represent sequences from the 5' end of the virion rna. previous ... | 1976 | 972428 |

| microviscosity of togavirus membranes studied by fluorescence depolarization: influence of envelope proteins and the host cell. | the microviscosities of the hydrophobic regions of the membranes of intact semliki forest and sindbis viruses grown on bhk-21 cells, of liposomes derived from the extracted viral lipids, and of protease-treated virions were measured by fluorescence depolorization using the fluorescence probe 1, 6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene. the intact virus membranes were found to have a higher microviscosity than did virus-derived liposomes, indicating the viral envelope proteins contribute to microviscosity. ho ... | 1976 | 985887 |
| failure of defective interfering particles of sindbis virus produced in bhk or chicken cells to affect viral replication in aedes albopictus cells. | whereas defective interfering particles of sindbis virus are readily produced in bhk-21 cells or chicken embryo fibroblasts by the techniques of serial undiluted passage, similar methods failed to generate such particles in aedes albopictus cell cultures. in addition, sindbis virus stocks produced in bhk-21 cells or chicken embryo fibroblasts and which contained defective interfering particles, when tested in a. albopictus cells, failed (i) to interfere with the replication of standard sindbis v ... | 1976 | 986481 |
| characteristics of sindbis virus temperature-sensitive mutants in cultured bhk-21 and aedes albopictus (mosquito) cells. | a number of the temperature-sensitive mutants of sindbis virus originally isolated and characterized by burge and pfefferkorn (1966, 1968) were reexamined for their abilities to grow and complement one another in cultured bhk-21 and aedes albopictus (mosquito) cells. the response of the mutants to conditions of high and low temperature was similar in cultured cells of both the vertebrate and invertebrate hosts. complementation experiments in bhk-21 cells produced growth patterns similar to those ... | 1976 | 987251 |
| asymmetry of the lipid-bilayer of sindbis virus. | the organization of the lipid bilayer of the enveloped sindbis virus has been studied. in the model membrane which consists only of two virus specific glycoproteins and host derived lipids the latter were radioactively labelled with 14c-palmitic acid by prelabelling their bhk 21 host cell lipids. the purified virus particles were submitted to neuramidase, bromelain and combromelain-neuraminidase treatment. it could be demonstrated that n-acetyl neuraminic acid residue of the total hematoside pre ... | 1976 | 991384 |
| formation of a sindbis virus nonstructural protein and its relation of 42s mrna function. | chicken embryo fibroblasts infected with an rna- temperature-sensitive mutant (ts24) of sindbis virus accumulated a large-molecular-weight protein (p200) when cells were shifted from the permissive to nonpermissive temperature. appearance of p200 was accompanied by a decrease in the synthesis of viral structural proteins, but [35s]methionine tryptic peptides from p200 were different from those derived from a 140,000-molecular-weight polypeptide that contains the amino acid sequences of viral str ... | 1976 | 994299 |
| purification and composition of the proteins from sindbis virus grown in chick and bhk cells. | procedures are described for the purification of the sindbis virus structural proteins. the amino acid and carbohydrate compositions of the purified proteins are presented for virus grown in bhk-21/13 and chicken embryo cells. glycoprotein e1 from virus grown in bhk cells is deficient in a mannose-rich glycopeptide found on that glycoprotein when virus is grown in chicken embryo cells. the complex glactose-containing glycopeptides appear similar for virus grown in both hosts. however, when virus ... | 1976 | 994303 |
