Abstract

The DNA synthesized in herpes simplex virus (HSV)-infected nuclei in vivo was analyzed by chromatography on benzoylated naphthoylated DEAE-cellulose columns. Viral-DNA molecules that elute with caffeine contain single-stranded DNA sequences sensitive to a micrococcal endonuclease that cleaves single-stranded DNA only. These viral-DNA molecules behave kinetically as precursors to mature virion DNA, and their transition to the mature double-stranded form occurs within a period of 10 to 20 min. Electron microscopy revealed viral-DNA molecules at different stages of replication. The mechanism of HSV-DNA replication is discussed.
