Three unique viral RNA species of snowshoe hare and La Crosse bunyaviruses.

Two-dimensional gel electrophoreses of RNase T1-derived oligonucleotides of the three individual RNA segments of the bunyavirus snowshow hare virus indicate that its three RNA segments possess distinct nucleotide sequences. The fingerprints of the RNA species of snowshoe hare virus differ from those of the antigenically closely related La Crosse virus. Three viral RNA species have been identified in preparations of Melao and Trivittatus as well as snowshoe hare, Lumbo, and La Crosse bunyaviruses.

The virus particle nucleic acids and proteins of four bunyaviruses.

The structural polypeptides of five bunyaviruses, snowshoe hare, Lumbo and La Crosse viruses (members of the California encephalitis subgroup of bunyaviruses), Bunyamwera and Main Drain viruses (members of the Bunyamwera subgroup of bunyaviruses), have been compared by polyacrylamide-SDS gel electrophoresis. Each virus was found to possess three major structural polypeptides, two glycoproteins (G1 and G2), and one nucleocapsid protein (N). Although the sizes of the G1 polypeptides (mol.

Recombination and complementation between temperature-sensitive mutants of a Bunyavirus, snowshoe hare virus.

Complementation and recombination have been observed with temperature-sensitive mutants of Bunyavirus snowshoe hare virus.

On the regulation of adenosine 3', 5'-monophosphate synthesis in bacteria. I. Effect of carbon source variation on cyclic AMP synthesis in Escherichia coli B/r.

1. The effect of carbon source variation in bacterial growth media on their growth rate, inducible enzyme and cyclic AMP synthesis was examined: an inverse relationship between the culture's growth rate and its differential rate of inducible enzyme (tryptophanase and beta-galactosidase), and cyclic AMP synthesis was found. 2.
